About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm gona start off by saying that I'm just a simple nice guy. I went to university, graduated, currently working for an engineering company in Johannesburg. thats the boring stuff :)

In my personal time I love messing around in the kitchen with food and hence cooking, love trance music and belong to online trance community. Enjoy going out with friends ( especially when I'm back home in Cape Town) and watching movies, eating out - typical things like that.

Massive football fan and Manchester united supporter and I'm the captain of my works 5 a side football team. I believe in using sport as a catalyst for bringing folks together.

Currently trying to get into shape to take part in cycle races ( momentum 97.5 and Argus cycle tour) and hopefully next year compete in my first triathlon.

I'm keep to travel to as many places as I can while I can. Love to see south and central america (brazil, columbia, argentina, chile, mexico), England and India.

PHILOSOPHY

My number one philosophy has to be " do unto your neighbour as you would want your neighbour to do unto you". Might sound very biblical but its a school of thought that has been with me for years and its something try to practice all the time.

Secondly - you should always be yourself, 24/7. Don't allow other peoples actions to control you.

We only have one life and its up to us to fill it with as much as we can in the short time that were on planet earth.
