One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Jumped out of a perfectly good plane, that landed afterwards.....so there was no need for this!! And did it quite a few times afterwards...again! Diving with an annoyingly tame whale shark in Hibberdene, KZN, that kept following us. Did the Ultimate Human Race (Comrades Marathon) x4. Drove a truck through 7 African countries (and border posts) with a fake license printed on a home printer (original driver disappeared on us!)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to roast your own coffee....nothing as good as a good cuppachino from freshly roasted Fair Trade beans.

Good traditional South African food (when we can find the ingredients in Canada), stories and good wine.
