the making of me

The Travel bug bit me at age thirteen, when I joined family friends on a trip to the Isles of Scilly. Although these small islands are just a few miles of the British Coastline, it was the journey to get there that intrigued me; a five hour drive, a helicopter ride, a boat journey and a tractor and trailer to take us to our campsite

Rome, Italy

At sixteen I went to work in Portugal for the summer and at eighteen I worked and traveled for a year throughout Australia, New Zealand and Fiji.

Angkor Wat, Cambodia
These experiences and people that I encountered sparked a light inside me and over the next couple of years I visited over twenty countries including Cambodia, Thailand, America, Spain, France, Italy and Germany


Racing Camels, Dubai

I then moved to Dubai and worked as a riding instructor for two years. I met my boyfriend and yes he is South African and here I am in Cape Town.

Wow that’s a very brief account of the last 28 years, but I suppose it gives you a peek at who I am.
