About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To think of something really creative, imaginative and wacky to put as my current mission

ABOUT ME

I am a 27 year old, fun-loving, independent and low maintanance guy from South Africa currently travelling the world and searching for couches.
I am maybe not the most normal person in the world.
Very normal people may think I'm strange.
I think very normal people are strange.
Anyways, I would say I am outgoing and friendly.
I write for a living and also play guitar and sing.
I make the best tea ever!!!!

PHILOSOPHY

When in Rome, eat pizza and go to the Vatican

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Teach, Learn, Share

I have to confess I don't really understand this one. Am I supposed to teach my fellow couchsurfers important things about life?

Ok, um, here goes:
Eat your greens, but don't ever eat anything green if green is not said item of food's natural colour.
My grandmother taught me that.
