ABOUT ME

Sweet-natured, small faced South African girl, sometimes quiet, sometimes a party animal, but always genuine. I moved to Japan in July 2010 as a dare to myself to be more adventurous and see more of the world. I hope to oneday blur the boundaries of fashion, social entrepreneurship and vagabond travel.

PHILOSOPHY

There are too many mediocre things in life. Love shouldn't be one of them.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently enjoying Murakami books and recently read Rolf Potts' "Vagabonding" - it's life changing!

I'm too easy when it comes to music! My collection sucks too so suggestions are welcome!! I mostly enjoy Indie, folk and DnB with a little commercial house thrown in to confuse things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A full month of partying during the 2010 Soccer World Cup.

Swimming in the clear waters and lazing on the white sandy beaches of Okinawa - a dream come true.

Singing karaoke in a high rise building in Shibuya, Tokyo... a Lost in Translation re-enactment.
