  • Description

    Hello and thank you for looking at my profile!!

    I am a friendly, easy-going, reliable and well travelled South African. I was born in Johannesburg but moved to the UK about 18 years ago in order to satisfy my love of travel and experience all that the world has to offer. I love learning about other cultures, meeting new people and learning new things.

    I am passionate about self-sufficient living and would love to learn more about this way of life. I believe in living a healthy life and taking care of oneself in the best way possible.

    Growing up in South Africa I have a great love of animals of all kinds and nature in general and always feel my best when surrounded by trees and plants.

    Thanks to volunteering I have experience in kitchen assistance, cooking, mowing lawns, weeding, planting, painting, hedging and walking and feeding taking care of a variety of pets.

    I work 3 weeks on 3 weeks off as a private caregiver/personal assistant to a gentleman living with paralysis, During the 3 weeks I have off I usually travel and/or do Workaway experiences.

    Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
