CURRENT MISSION

See the world

ABOUT ME

I am interested in seeing the world and exposing myself to different views lifestyles. currently living in Amsterdam, I have traveled my home country (South Africa) and New Zealand and Europe quite a bit but I am always on the lookout for exciting travel experiences :). I'm quite easy going and always keen to learn about people from different places and backgrounds.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about experiences. It doesn’t have to be perfect to be wonderful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have travelled across New Zealand and with a fellow couch surfer (we drove her car back to Auckland from Queenstown). I am lolking to ise the hangouts feature more as it looks like a cool idea. One day when I am more settled I would like to host as a payback to the community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I connected with a couchsurfer from New Zealand in 2013 and together with her roommate we did a roadtrip in her car from New Zealand’s South Island to North Island.
It turned out that shortly after the trip we were both in Hong Kong over the same period and as she was from Hong Kong, I was lucky enough to explore the city with a local :)
