If there is one thing that stands out in my life, it is the fact that my parents and all of my extended family are from South Africa.

I am very proud of the fact that I have this unique heritage, but more than that, I love the country. It has so much to offer, from astonishing views (like the one pictured), to amazing wildlife.

The wildlife in South Africa is easily my favorite aspect. Every time we visit we book a week in the Kruger Park Game Reserve. I've seen many amazing animals in that park, but the most fun part of going there is being there with my three sisters and parents, and trying to spot the rarest animals we could find.

Having been to South Africa has also opened my eyes to some of the beautiful things other places around the world have to offer. This has given me a sense of adventure, which is why traveling the world is a real passion of mine.
