About Me

I am a South African gap-year student travelling through Europe for a few weeks before going home to my family. I have just completed an internship in Germany as a horse groom. I love animals, I am easy-going and willing to help out with anything you may need me to.
I have not hosted, as I am only 19 and live with my parents in South Africa, but they have hosted for both Couchsurfing and Warm Showers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I would like to learn about the people of the country I am in. I have couchsurfed once before with my parents and found it far more enriching than simply staying in a backpacker's or hotel.

Interests

I have been raised in many different place in South Africa. I enjoy being able to talk to people about their lives and how they see the world.

I love history and art and find the small bits of history in places fascinating. I hope to study anthropology and geography one day.
