I’m new to couch surfing and in Europe on vacation! I love everything fun from hiking to partying, to chilling and listening to music. I would love to share music and learn about your views on life. I will be very happy for you to share your hobbies and interests with me. I can cook up a storm! I love to cook for my friends and family. I would be very happy to share my love of food with you.

Refiloe
Hey everyone! I’m Refiloe 🌱 I enjoy travelling slow for longer periods of time. It gives me the time and space to truly take a place in and connect with it and its people. I love exploring natural landscapes on my travels and often add a hike or two to my itinerary (I call it hiking, you’ll probably call it a gentle stroll in nature lol). I’m here to connect with new people and perhaps even travel with some of you one day 🤍
Based on 7 experiences
Johannesburg is beautiful and quite safe if you choose the right areas to stay and hang around. A lot of travellers are afraid of traveling to South Africa because of the high crime rate in the city but from my experience it all depends on the areas. I would highly recommend staying Sandton or areas close for safety and general aesthetic. Sandton is relatively more expensive than other areas but it's worth it!
Posted: September 21, 2024Experienced: July, 2022I advise against travelling to Johannesburg alone - it's best to get around the city with locals. Ubers are safe, but avoid walking around the city alone.
