The world has gone mad and we are following the trend. We might not be raging wars and pocketing resources, but we’re running like lunatics, racing up ladders that lead to nowhere. We’ve forgotten to check our compass and are spinning circles on the hamster wheel of life.

Stop. Breathe. Recalibrate. Breathe again.

Now, tell me where are you going? Why?

And then there are people starring in lives that are nothing like the one they signed up for. Simply existing. Watching the days tick on: work, sleep, eat, repeat. Numb. Pondering the point of it all.

For years I chased immaterial things as I desperately tried to fit into a society that I seemed badly designed for. I kept changing jobs, degrees, and style, hoping that would somehow change me.

In 2007, I hesitantly agreed to join some friends on an adventure through East Africa, having no idea that my entire life was about to change. It took a couple of months, but I learned to slow down enough to marvel at the life unfolding around me. I danced my way through cultures and customs. I quickly learned to do things I never dreamed I could. My horizons kept widening as I bounced around this phenomenal planet on bicycles, sailing boats, and just about anything that moved. Every adventure I embarked on pushed my life forward, transforming me. Every time I came home to South Africa, I was a different person. Stronger, braver, more me.

This weekend I launched a NEW WEBSITE because I know what work I absolutely have to do. In a world that seems to be going in the entirely wrong direction, I want to do everything I can to leave a positive imprint. I want people to have MORE, because there is so much more to life than just existing. I’m an adventurer, not a computer person, so the website has a lot of changes yet to come, but every dream has to begin somewhere and I this is my starting point.

I launched a NEW BOOK too! A short read answering those doubts and excuses that have stopped so many from chasing their dreams. I don’t have all the answers, but I’m living proof that small steps forward can you transform your life into something MORE! (I even made it as close to free as Amazon would let me make it, so get it while it’s free-ish.)

I don’t know where you are today, I might not even know you, but if you are looking for MORE, why not start here? (If you still have questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!) ♡♡♡
