    I was born in Belville, near the city of Cape Town, many years ago. Never settled in one place and has been all over this country except for the Free State, Northern and North West provinces.

    Today, I am a chemist employed in the R&D division of one of South Africa's largest steel manufacturer's (and 22nd in the world at last look).

Note:

Afrikaans is one of our eleven official languages and is quite similar to Dutch and much like Flemish. In fact, my generation used to study prescribed Flemish works during our senior year at school.
