About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit all the countries in Africa by the time I'm 60!

ABOUT ME

Hiya, I live in Chesham but have lived in Zambia, Malta, Austria and the Netherlands. My grandparents were Polish, Dutch, Italian and British. I hold dual nationality; Dutch and British. Love meeting new people and seeing new places. Travelled round most of Europe, 41 countries in total in: Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and Oceania. I love to meet people from different countries and have a range of friends here from Ivory Coast, Nigeria, France, Italy, Hungary and South Africa.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe you need to be a positive thinker and see everything as a learning experience (and everyone). I try to respect people and learn from everyone. I live my life to help people and experience new things.
