About

I was living in South Africa (Durban) until November 2011. I have been living in the United Kingdom (England) since January 2012. Its been interesting. I do miss home a lot but I'm beginning to settle in here. I would like to meet some like-minded friends to spend time with. I'm friendly and outgoing with a good sense of humour. I enjoy travelling and I would say I'm pretty adventurous. Please do get in touch! I look forward to hearing from you;-)
Interests: photography, sport, knitting, art, cycling, hiking, walking, , travelling, running, reading, sewing

I think the hardest thing for me was/is the difficulty in fitting in. I think its also being confronted with a bad attitude towards you being there. Some people do honestly have this view that you are 'stealing' locals jobs etc. However, the best ... Read More
