About

I'm Nandi from South Africa. I'm a backpacker, When I was a teenager, I was dreaming of traveling all over the world and pursue my writing. I told myself that I can't stay in my comfort zone waiting for people to help me. I have to get up and brush myself off and keep on moving; I have come to accept the feeling of not knowing where I am going, and I have trained myself to love it. I used to think I was the strangest person in the world. Because when I tell people about my life, they say, I'm mettlesome and sagacious. That's where I wrote my first book, called, Journey of a crazy black woman But then I thought there are so many people in the world. There must be someone just like me who dream higher in the same way I do.
Interests: travelling, Writing, camping and socializing

Occupation

I am Job seeker.
