It has a calming effect on me. I wish I could become a star gazer and look it more often with a better understanding. Maybe I'll do that Astronomy Read More →

I spent the last week in Cape Town and I'm heading back to good ol' Joburg on Sunday. My good friend Russell allowed me to stay with him in Simon's Town and what a wonderful experience it has been.

I was recently appointed to the board of the ICDL Foundation in South Africa and this guarentees monthly visits to Cape Town. Yipee!! Read More →
