HOBBIES AND PART TIME ACTIVITIES


Because I am a nature lover, I do hiking, 4x4 off roading & camping. I love the diverse nature of the Karoo with its clean crisp air and snow in winter. I also do lots of reading especially on matters regarding my work, history, nature and reading any technical books that I can lay my hands on.

I am currently applying at Unisa to study for a Bachelors degree in mechanical engineering.
