Biografie

I've always been captivated by stories, whether they're told, written, sung, or played on a computer or console. Growing up around campfires in South Africa, I was enthralled by the tales of those who had traveled further and seen more than I could ever dream of. Inspired by these stories, my imagination took flight, leading me to travel to over 30 countries, each journey adding to my collection of tales and experiences. When I'm not deliberately getting lost in a new city, you can find me diligently working at my keyboard, managing my content creation company. I currently reside in Hanoi, which has become the third love of my life, following closely behind my wife and the golden hues of the South African Highveld.

Reiservaring

As a South African copywriter, I've had the incredible opportunity to explore iconic cities and enchanting destinations all around the world. Apart from my home continent of Africa, my journey has taken me mostly across Europe, where I've had the luck to get to know at least 21 major cities. I have also wandered across Asia and the Middle East, through Bangkok, Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand, Doha and Dubai.

The travel memory that I cherish the most involves a brief (but pretty exhausting) climb up a mountain in Cat Ba island. At the top, we were treated to the spectacular sight of Lan Ha and Ha Long Bay stretching out into the distance — a sight that will forever stay with me, and which I was lucky enough to share with my loved ones.
