I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a South African, living in London, having lived in the Netherlands for a few years before i came here..I have a BA in Photography and Illustration (which i obtained in Maastricht, NL). I am up for laughs, good music and great company. I love the darker things in life - be it music, clothing, art, light.. I loathe background noises, screaming babies, stupid lager louts trying to chat me up and people that complain aallll the time about the bloody weather. I love smelling the rain, Ducati motorbikes, hearing children laugh, L's smile, eating healthy food, eating rubbish food and watching birds fly, and i believe i used to live in the Victorian days...Mystery is a virtue... I've come to seriously realise that life is too short to trouble yourself with silly issues....Love your family, love your friends, cherish everything you have.

My Interests

Going to gigs, pubbing with friends, taking photos of strange things and interesting people, travelling, staring at the clouds, cycling, dreaming endlessly to very cool music, going to gym, drawing, watching the sun set, thinking of Africa, waving through old photographs, cooking delicious food for friends, imagining i am playing a part in a Jane Austen story, pretending to know how to speak French, and basically anything to keep my brain and eyes stimulated...

I'd like to meet:
