ABOUT ME

My boyfriend and I just moved to Pretoria, South Africa from Canada and are looking to make some new friends during our one-year stay here. We are in our late twenties and enjoy movies, music, art, literature, traveling and trying new things. We're both very easy going and down to earth. Steve is an electrical engineer and works for a locomotive company here. I was a photographer & receptionist back home, but will not be working while we're in South Africa.
We live in East Pretoria, near Lynnwood.

PHILOSOPHY

I'll try anything twice (within reason).

A quote I like:

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain
