ABOUT ME

Outdoorsy, active sort of bookworm. Happy to be out moving around or a quiet night in with a novel. I prefer hanging out with people one on one or in small groups as opposed to large crowds.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm led by the wit and wisdom of Oscar Wilde.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailing from Mozambique to Cape Town was breathtaking. All the porpoises and whales we spotted, the weather was perfect and went days without seeing another boat. Epic! The wild coast is scary but gorgeous sailing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to meet and learn from all kinds of people. Also, I'm qualified to teach English, and I'm also a yachtmaster, so if people are willing to go for a sail I can teach them a thing or two.
