I am 29 and living in South Africa on an awesome small farm. It’s awesome because it gave me the opportunity to live with nature and various animals and on a mission for world change ( more on that in posts to come ). I was born into music and learned to play the piano from my Late mother and also play Guitar – currently in a new band called Humanix - https://www.patreon.com/humanix.
I have Graves disease which luckily I’m managing alright, I’m still looking for natural cures. This started about 5 years ago and it took a while for doctors to finally diagnose me ( took 4 fracking months). By the time I got the right medication I lost about 10 kg. Below you can see a before and after picture. The first pic is me before getting sick doing my favorite thing which is bodyboarding and the second picture is me by the time I got diagnosed. I did regain my weight back btw.
I have chronic back pain and throat pain – unfortunately medical aid is not free as it should be and thus I’m unable to do much about that. My hope is that in posts to come I can share how I manage it so others who suffer can learn from this or find insights that might help them.
I don’t have human children but below are 2 animals among many I care for deeply. The big one eating my head is Grootman ( Afrikaans word for “Big man”) and the other one eating my face is Poeper ( Afrikaans word for farter – no, her name does not have anything to do with poo).
Shes not a puppy anymore - here she is doing one of her favorite things which is going into bushes:
Alright that is it for now - thanks for reading.

Thanks @nicolicreer! I see you saw The Killers live - here in SA there are very few shows to see awesome live bands. Sure we have local talent but not many international bands make their way here and when they do its usually only in 1 or 2 cities - Followed back
