Love to travel, but do not always have the opportunity to do so...SA is so far from everything... literally on the other side of the world!!
SO, the next best thing is to get the WORLD to come to me!!
We love to host and meet new people. The we are myself, my husband Tommy, and our Labrador, Mr Black Jack.

We are captivated by all the new cultures and the sharing of cooking experiences.
I will encourage our Couch Surfing guests to share their cooking skills and recipes with us. We encourage our guest to cook us a traditional meal from their country. We will be so blessed if you can. And we will reciprocate accordingly with lovely home cooked South African meals.

I play a lot of padel at the court very close to my house and would love to show you how to play if you have never done it before.
Flyfishing is also a great love of mine, and I try to fish in as many countries as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to welcome travellers to our country in true South African Style.
I would like to learn more about other countries and their people. I enjoy sharing good wine, good food and good company.
We have a very comfortable home with a relaxed atmosphere for any weary traveller.
Come and enjoy our lovely weather and views and breathe in our fresh country air.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

River rafting on the Zambezi River, Zimbabwe.
Yes, I nearly drowned!
Yes, I am not a good swimmer!
And yes, afterwards the guide explains the life cycle of the crocodiles found along the banks of the Zambezi River!
NICE!!!
