Guide Profile:
I was born on the Island of Madeira, hence the reason I speak Portuguese as this was my home language growing up. I came to South Africa with my parents at the tender age of 2.5years.
South Africa is my homeland and I grew up in Johannesburg between the gold coloured mine dumps.
For the last 25 years I have run my own business in floristry, having being the District representative and Chairperson of Interflora District 5. During this time I, together with my committee oversaw the arrangements for the Interflora Convention African areas. This ensured that I was competent in organising venues and itinerary.

I am very enthusiastic and do get on with all types of people and know how to handle public.

I am very committed and trustworthy hence my dedication to my business and success of my business in the last 25 years.

The reason I am changing and becoming a tour guide is that because I love nature and people and cannot see a better retirement than becoming a tour guide.
