I am a fun-loving, open minded South African guy with a passion for travel and exercise. I am a qualified yoga teacher and personal trainer but currently working as a caregiver in the UK for people with spinal injuries. I love the challenge of the job and have learned very much about myself in the process. I travelled extensively but still have so many more places to see! My favourite place I've been to was Hawaii where I lived in a yoga retreat centre for 3 months. I am well educated and respectful and love meeting new people from all backgrounds and walks of life. I try to practice meditation and yoga daily which helps keep me grounded and physically strong. I am also a vegetarian although I occasionally eat fish too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I have met numerous people indiectly through the site who have since become close friends. I prefer to live like a local when travelling instead of hanging out in hotels.
