IntroductionI am a born Johannesburger but am glad that that side was pushed outta me when my parents retired to the beautiful town of White River in Mpumalanga. I was 13 when I moved and have made so many friends that I still have today. Its been a good decade, what can I say. I love cooking, baking and making both rather OTT. It's a passion of mine to impress and food is the gateway to my passion.
InterestsWell I am a very active person, ontop of all the work I find for myself I really enjoy going to the driving range and taking my frustrations out on a 100 bucket, My nephew plays Western Province squash so I am trying my best to win a game off him but to no avail, I love listening to all sorts of music and especially whilst driving around the beautiful mother city, Most of all I love my work and what I do. I hope you feel the same :)
Favorite moviesI enjoy watching the occasional film or series but this hobby has really taken a back step since working for myself. The reason is that when I am not working I would rather be chilling and chatting with friends than staring at a TV or Laptop screen. I haven't watched any of the latest Oscar wonders but it is on my list of things to do.
Favorite musicGoing through the phases at the moment. Was really into drum and bass for a while as well as trance but have taken a more mellow approach now. Really enjoy MCR and Mumford and Sons and pretty much anything as long as I can play it loud and sing along or just jam to it!
Favorite booksA Day at El Bulli by Ferran Adria, Sous Vide, The last novel I tried to read was the last Harry Potter but couldnt get through it so I listened to the Stephen Fry Audio version instead :)
