ABOUT ME
I am a young professional, working in IT Project Management. I traveled a lot while I grew up - I was Born in South Africa and then moved to England and then to Botswana, and then back to England - so I have a passion for visiting new places and learning about different cultures and outlooks. I enjoy jogging, hiking, and sailing (I have a Day Skippers License from the RYA).
PHILOSOPHY
Do onto others as you would have them do unto you
