About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surviving living far away from home (South Africa) and reaching my goals I set out to myself. To be spontanious and enjoy every moment of my expereciences. And last but not least, getting to know more people and places!

ABOUT ME

I'm an adventurous 20 year old. I love company and good times together with friends. I'm an easygoing person, enjoying art and new experiences.being spontanious all the time.

PHILOSOPHY

mmmm. Well, my philosophy is to accept things the way they are, and if you do not like it, to try and change it. Always be grateful for what you have and treat others with respect as if you walked a mile in their shoes . Keeping good balance.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I am new here so. I guess I just want to meet more people and also travel and see how they live (when I am not busy). Further on I love playing host and showing my surroundings to other people, and in return I seem to experience it through my guests eyes and realise again where I am finding myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I have spent a lot of holidays in a nature reserve of my friend. It is nature all around and simply unbelievable beautiful . During the day you climb in giant trees, exploring, and at night times sitting next to fire, listening to friends playing instruments and looking at the stars. Further on I was at the biggest Monet exihibition, and it blew my mind away. Just in general the big Art selection one can find here in Europe.
