About me

I've been in the industry for 13 years. I am completely in love with Cape Town and traveling. I've worked in Events, Marketing, hospitality, consulting and now content creation all within the tourism industry. I believe that sustainable tourism will change the world. When I first started in the industry, someone told me; "Tourism is not a job, it's a lifestyle." More than a decade later, I still think it's the best "lifestyle" ever.
Saving our wildlife is something I feel strongly about and I shall never grow tired fighting for those who don't have a voice.
