About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To not forget that “the life and simple beauty of it is too good to pass up” - Christopher McCandless

ABOUT ME

The dust on my boots and the rhythm of my feet and my heartbeat say Africa!
I was born and raised on the open spaces of Namibia and I see the world as one of Mama Africa's children. I love music, dancing and being out in the open. I am passionate about my country and culture and enjoy sharing my stories about the diverse place I call my home.

I am an open minded, free spirited and curious person. I love life and want to do and see as much as I can in the short time that I am on this earth.

PHILOSOPHY

Freedom is something that dies unless it's used - Hunter S. Tompson
