(1) This is with Lorenzo and Patrick. I've been staying with Patrick and his family for quite a while, they've helped me out whenever there was a problem, they were just there, my family, my spiritual guides. Lorenzo is Patricks best friend, and he soon became a real good friend of mine, too. Both of them work at the Traffic Department, and with both of them I was on patrol during New Years Eve at the beach... :-)
(2) This is with Earl, Davie, Manfred and Thapelo. These guys are some brilliant musicians at our church, good examples for the youth, and some really fun friends. We often enjoyed ourselves while watching a DVD or philosophying about the world. Whenever you are around them, you can just be amazed about their characters...
(3) This is Christy, the "princess" from Zimbabwe. She is one of the most amazing people I've ever met in my life. Coming from a very poor background in Zimbabwe, she made it to South Africa, where she lived at least 5 years, and where we met. Now she went to Oslo in Norway to start from scratch, married (the foto is from her wedding day) and is even happier than before. Isn't she beautiful...?

(4) This is with Arnaldo, the boss' son. He was always there to party, to help out, and to talk to. He is tall, but as tall as he is, as big became our friendship. He is a very handsome young man with whom you can just hang out, party, have fun, and most of all: be crazy...!
(5) This is with Lamla and Franco. The 3 of us were the main bartenders at Cubana. I practically spent the last 3 months with them as we were running the bar on our own. We had quite some fun as we all had a different sense of humor, and it was clear who was supposed to attract which type of client ;-) They introduced me to being a barlady, and they were my partners in crime...
(6) This is Dani and Rovan, 2 of the best waiters I know and with whom to work was a real pleasure. Dani was always dancing, and Rovan was always flying through the shop - they are really incredible, and nice, too...
(7) This is with Tinah, Trevor, Vuyo, Pretty and Zikhona. We were working together over the season at Spur. We were all quite close, whereby Tinah and I have the closest bond. She is from Uganda and has such a friendly personality, she cares and is good in her heart...
(8) This is with Ricardo, one of my best runners. We used to call him "pigeon" because he used to make such sounds and even walked like a pigeon. Of course we were making fun of him, but he did so, too! He was really fast and good, so it was relaxing to work with him, and I knew I could rely on him, which made working together really comfortable...
(9) This is Julian, a very close friend of mine, and his daughter Gillian. Julian is Patricks wifes brother. While I lived in his room, Julian stayed in town, then we swoped, I got his flat and he moved back to Patrick. Gillian came to visit and became my absolutely favorite girl. We saw each other and never left each other during the time she was in Hermanus... :-)
(10) This is Kay, Lorenzos little sister, and Tirsha, a close friend of Patricks family. the 2 girls are what we would call "hyper" and crazy, but I always enjoyed chatting with them, hangig out at the beach with them or having lunch at their house. They are 2 very nice girls, really!
