OTHER EXPERIENCES

I have lived in several large-scale
communes in Denmark, and have thus had
a great deal of experience navigating group
dynamics and working with local resouces.  

I have travelled extensively in Scandinavia,
Europe, and Morocco.  During my travels I
learned about other countries,
communities, cultures, and ways of living
and thinking.  This learning  has proved
invaluable for my work within the
culturally diverse South African society.  

I first visited South Africa in 1986, to
experience the country that had become
known for apartheid.  I found an amazingly
colourful and hospitable population, and
felt thoroughly at home.  After more visits,
I finally came to live permanently in South
Africa in 1987.  This is a decision I have
never had cause to regret, and I enjoy using
my skills and abilities to the benefit of my
adopted country.
