About Me
Hi there,
I'm South African, have dual nationality hence the British passport. I love travelling and need to see more of the world. Having recently discovered this option, I'm keen to try my hand at it.
I've been made redundant at my current job and thought that before stepping back into the rat race, it would be amazing to be able to travel a bit more.
I enjoy hiking (although London doesn't have the best hikes, I have hiked in Cape Town, Morocco and Hawaii), love reading (guilty pleasure is paranormal books), crime and drama books in general although the occasional soppy love story finds its way in. I enjoy live gigs, rock being my first choice.
My general outlook on life is that you've only got one shot at it so need to make the most of it and enjoy yourself! Whilst being kind to those around you. I don't do discrimination of any type, be in sexual, racial, sexual orientation, religious, etc. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect.
This is the first time I'm doing anything like this so please don't hesitate to me should you require any clarification or further information. 🙂
