CURRENT MISSION

Wandering purposefully

ABOUT ME

I have recently begun a tour around the world, living and traveling in a Toyoto Land Cruiser. The tour has started in Southern Africa, and I have NO idea where it will take me or how long it will last.

PHILOSOPHY

Every time I think I figured it out, the world expands. - Gift of Gab.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since joining CS, I haven't had a home base from which to host surfers. But, as I travel throughout Africa (and one day, hopefully, the wider world) I would love to use CS to spend a few days in cities with locals or expats, and get to see the place through YOUR eyes.

Attending the Harare International Festival of the Arts and dancing the weekend away with new Zimbabwean friends!
Gazing out at the world below me from the top of Table Mountain in Cape Town.
