About Me

I am incredibly bad at providing descriptions of myself and they fill me with a special kind of dread. But here's a try: I'm open-minded, curious and particularly fascinated by people. I love exploring the world and meeting like-minded people. I am ridiculously empathetic, a huge psychology/science nerd and love meeting people from all walks of life. I have only two real talents: 1.) being able to hold a conversation with absolutely anybody, 2.) being unusually persistent.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be. (Douglas Adams)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to take people around my beautiful hometown. There is so much to explore around Cape Town! I also love cooking and love feeding people, so I'd be happy to cook you a South African meal.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not new to couch surfing, and defnitely not new to crashing on couches. I've hosted a variety of people over the past few years and never had a bad experience. I love getting to know people and love showing people around my town.
