Hi there, I'm a South African born New Zealander and I've worked as a web developer, designer, social media content creator and advertising art director for the last few years.

I've recently left New Zealand and I'm at the beginning of what will hopefully be a long backpacking trip through Asia and then onto Europe. I'm a creative soul with a passion for photography and equally love exploring cities and the countryside. I love meeting locals and learning about those hidden spots and secret must-dos that most travellers will never find out about.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've hosted a couple of Couchsurfers while studying in Auckland, New Zealand and attended a few meet ups. Now that I'm travelling myself I'm looking for people to go on adventures with, to learn from and a place to rest my head after a busy day!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I raised a black bird from a chick and taught it how to eat worms and to fly.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn how to cook dishes from around the world. Could definitely share a few Kiwi faves as well! I can share some photo retouching skills, make your travel pics look even better. I've just started learning Spanish and love picking up bits and pieces of other languages.
