I am a creative and artistic free spirit at heart with a "thirst" and passion to work and live my own art. I am 27 years old, originally from South Africa and now live permanently in London, surrounded by a loving family who share my passion for travel and understand the "gypsy" lifestyle i lead..... 12 schools in 12 years- my early years were anything but boring- these "foundation" years have taught me to be flexible and more receptive to change- the only constant- for which i am eternally grateful.

My passion is ...

to be found where my heart "sings"-music writing and travel

I know too much about ...

nothing. Always something to learn!

My parents always told me ...

to believe in myself and the power of my dreams

My childhood ambition ...

was to be a scientist- how times have changed.......

My favorite memory ...

my travels- the mountains of Colorado to the beaches of Thailand

Why I write ...

to escape-to connect with myself

My inspiration ...

is found in the "colour" of my dreams
