I'm 27.. left home at the age of 15. I've had my ups, and also had some serious downs. But i've gained a helluva lot of life experience in my travels and learned that i am the eternal masochistic optimist. Nothing wrong with that!I'm often told by people that dont know me that i can initially come across as aloof, shy, arrogant or apathetic. But my friends who i am close to know this is a mere shading of my character(or is that just me prettying up a defense mechanism?hehe)I've been in the workforce now for near on 12 years and have had a vast array of occupations: Locksmith, Property and Building Maintenance, Chef, Barman, Bussy, Kitchenhand, Cable TV Installer, IT Account Manager, IT and Telephony Tech Support, Storeman....and the list goes on.As the years have gone by, i've come to realise that i truly adore my family.My mum Karlene, who is my hero. The more i see in her that i cherish and appreciate, the more i realise we are SO alike.My dad Arthur. Who has been more of a father to me over the past five years than any other man has been over the course of my life.My beautiful little sister Sophie, who has always had the amazing ability to unknowingly make me smile and see that life is illuminated.My brother Reuben. My blood. I have never known such hate and such love for one person. Took me a long time to realise i cant change the way i feel about himMy Niece Alex. An amazing little treasure and the first of the next generation in our family. Seeing her reminds me that we are all the same.mijn familie, ik hou van jou.I have quite a few passions in life... but if you want to know what they are, you'll have to get to know me.
