I'm a native South African, Rhodes University graduate with a Masters Degree in Economics, traveller, runner, part time writer and red wine drinker. Knowing a desk job is always waiting, I'm currently working and travelling in Oz, and can count English teacher in South Korea, pet sitter in South Africa, Belgian dishwasher and waiter extraordinaire in Scotland to my CV. Next up in my sights is NZ in September 2011 to watch the Springboks defend their World Cup crown.
