I am a traveling man

This photo was taken by a lady who sold me popcorn in what used to be Eastern Berlin. It is now trendy spot in an old building.


I Love travel. It has been one of my greatest teachers; everywhere I have been I have taken and left parts of my soul. It is one of my greatest Loves. I am incredibly Blessed to be able to do what I Love. This summer I have had the best time on the road, an absolute joy with old and new friends. The story of my travels started in in a farm in France and then to Prague, Ibiza and Berlin. I It continues till the end of August and It is likely to end in Paris and then Summer is set to start all over again in my beloved South Africa

Dear Paris

A great video by Education First, for one of my favourite places on earth.

Say 'Hello'

Pizza night

I Love being in the kitchen because I Love good food. I decided long ago that I would learn to cook the best meals; so the kitchen is one of my favourite spaces and I use it a creative outlet. Needless to say I fall short in other domesticating duties. Cooking is an art… you understand.

This is great pizza.

Redefining Success

"The plain fact is that the planet does not need more successful people but it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and Lovers of every kind. 
It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane and these qualities have little to do with success as our culture has defined it."


—David Orr

The road less traveled

"Be brave enough to live creatively. 

The creative is the place where no one else has ever been.

 You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. 

You cannot get there by bus, only by hard work, risking and by not quite knowing what you are doing. 

What you will discover will be wonderful; Yourself. "

— Alan Alda

Like water

I wrote this for you.

"Between
the anger
and the thousand
hollow words
we’ll never share
i wonder
if i am
your greatest
failure
or you
mine."

W. C. Pelon
