About Me

I'm an outdoors enthusiast, game for just about any high adrenaline adventure you can name. I grew up hiking and camping pretty much every weekend, and have spent the past 6 years sailing the world. Along the way I have met some amazing people and made lifelong friends from around the world. I have been fortunate to meet the woman of my dreams, who shares an intense desire to travel and explore! I am fairly quiet by nature, loving a good book, but love to have fun with a good group of people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have found that travelling to new cities can be quite a lonely experience at times, and Couchsurfing provides a way to meet like minded locals that love to travel too!

Interests

I just love being outside, being active and having adventures. I have a wide range of hobbies and interests and enjoy meeting new people through them!

Music, Movies, and Books

The Wheel of Time Book Series, The Sword of Truth Book Series (The screen adaptation is an unmitigated disaster), The Hunger Games Books - and many others!

Movies - Haha, I'm not going to pin that down easily. Loads!

Music - I'll happily listen to anything other than rap. Jazz lover, and I listen to deep house at work. Pretty much anything from Opera to Marilyn Manson!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One?! Nah - Here goes! Summited Mt Kilimanjaro, Bloukrans Bridge Bungee Jump (World's Highest), Attained my Springbok (National) colours in scouting.

Teach, Learn, Share

Happy to discuss a myriad of things! I am an avid hiker and camper in a range of climates, so I can talk you through that next trip you're planning - or encourage you to go out of your comfort zone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories of my adventures, travel insights, good conversation and who knows what else we may discover in common! Very happy to take you out for dinner in thanks.
