Description

I am Robyn, an 18 year old from Stanford, South Africa/Mozambique. As a naturally welcoming individual, I thrive on meeting new people and embracing the joy of learning. My family and friends hold a special place in my heart, bringing so much happiness to my life. With a strong work ethic, resilience, and kindness, I tackle challenges head-on. Helping others and seeking new experiences are my passions, and I find solace in the great outdoors. One of my favourite hobbies is especially that of cooking. Having attended a boarding school, I have learnt to be independent and love working in a team. Join me on this incredible journey of connection and growth!

I am Mark, an 18 year old from Knysna, South Africa. I thrive on physical exercise and the outdoors, where I feel invigorated and inspired. Exploring new places fuels my sense of adventure, and meeting new people ignites my passion for connection. I am motivated by contributing to the lives of others, seeking opportunities to make a positive impact wherever I can. With a desire to learn and grow, I believe my enthusiasm and willingness to embrace new challenges will be invaluable assets, ensuring a vibrant and fruitful collaboration for both parties.

More details about my language interests
I, Robyn, spent most of my childhood in Mozambique where I learnt Portuguese before going to boarding school in South Africa where I learnt Afrikaans. Due to my upbringing, and exposure to different languages, I am able to pick up languages easily and am very interested in learning new languages. I, Mark, grew up in South Africa and therefore have been exposed to more African languages, namely Afrikaans and isiXhosa, however I am excited at the prospect of being exposed to more foreign languages in coming years.
