I was born in Zimbabwe on 03/06/88. My family, consisting of parents, older brother and sister, migrated to South Africa when I was six months old. We moved back to Zimbabwe six years later, to help my grandparents on their farm - a career change for my father.
After a measly eighteen months we upped sticks and went farming on our own. This led us to Kwekwe, in the heart of Zimbabwe, to farm tobacco! Borrowdale farm which is part of the "Midlands Black Rhino Conservancy" is where we settled . This was the most incredible experience, living with such an abundance of wild life ........... of which we became a part of during the school holidays! Due to the "land redistribution policy" we had no option but to move on.
10th November, 2001 saw us arrive in New Zealand with our former lives packed into a suitcase each, ready to start our new lives. Our first three years were spent on the South Island and I nearly froze!!!!!!! A great employment opportunity for my father had us move up to the North Island. I now live on a farm just outside Matamata aka "Hobbiton" (defrosting).
Yep that should sum it up ha!

You can trust me to be honest, right... I'm not sure about this one, it lacks a dynamic feel which you usually bring. The rocks peeking in the bottom right are a big distraction. And whats worse is i think that they might help because apart from the trees, there's nothing else really to focus on. The sky is boring, flat and dull and the lack of motion in the water lets us lose what ever thoughts the dull sky might have helped us to create a dreamy world of mystery. Also i don't think your compo in this shot is really special. Basically, I KNOW YOU CAN DO BETTER!!! (you can tell me if you hate me)
