About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling, teaching and meeting wonderful people along the way!

ABOUT ME

I am a South African ESL teacher in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam with a huge love for music, literature, people, food and LIFE. I LOVE cooking, I have an absolute passion for music and the arts in general. I absolutely love meeting new people and learning new things. I am just as comfortable out dancing and partying with my friends as I am relaxing at home with a good movie and some green ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Live life in love and with compassion, with a free and open heart. Also, life is what happens when you're busy making other plans, so I try and make the most of every moment and live as passionately as possible.

Interests

I listen to music all day everyday. I love reading poetry and a good novel. I party. I chill. I talk about life with people I meet and people I love. I love spending time in nature.
