Born and raised in South Africa. I taught English in Taiwan for a year, then wandered around Asia and Australia before moving to Barcelona for 3 years and now I live in Malaga. I'm easy to get along with, and I prefer things to happen without much of a plan. I don't take myself very seriously and I'm really independent. I can eat my body weight in popcorn, I dance like a lunatic and I snort when I laugh.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

My mission is to be surrounded by genuine local culture wherever I go, to collect stories to share, and meet open, interesting people along the way. I love to try as much local food as possible, so would really appreciate someone telling me or showing me some of their favourites. And one day I plan to return the favour hosting when I have my own place!

Intereses

Music (jazz, blues, funk, rock, afrobeat, ska, brass, acoustic, almost anything). Unfortunately I don't play, I just listen. I really enjoy watching live shows.

Walking (getting lost)

Yoga

Dancing

Algo increíble que he hecho

Went diving about 20m down inside World War 2 Japanese shipwrecks in Coron, Philippines.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'd love to swap music and stories, share conversation, food, laughter, childhood memories, your take on life. Anything.

I really want to learn how to surf properly. I don't know how to, even though I come from a surf city.

I'm very good at being a helper in the kitchen if you need one. And I really love to bake.

I'd love to learn about your favourite things to do, the spots you hang out in, what you like to do on the weekends, and especially what you like to eat!

I can teach you how to swear in Greek.

Stories: I can't tell stories very well but I've been told that it's funny to watch me try.

Time: Sharing some light-hearted chats or deep conversations over a drink or a meal. Going for a walk around town or to watch some live music. Whatever you're into.
