1.WHAT IS YOUR DREAM DESTINATION AND WHY?

It would definitely be South Africa as I am a huge animal lover and it gives me great pleasure to watch them roam freely in their natural habitats.

2.THREE THINGS THAT YOU COULD NEVER TRAVEL WITHOUT?

My Phone for sure. Massage tools as I tend to get really bad stiff necks during my travels and lastly my very own medication in order to not complicate issues when I visit a doctor in a foreign country due to my allergies to certain medicine.

3.WHICH DESTINATION SURPASSED YOUR EXPECTATIONS AND SURPRISED YOU THE MOST?

Fukuoka. Food over there is surprisingly cheap and really good as well.

4.WHERE AND WHAT WAS YOUR MOST MEMORABLE MEAL YOU HAVE EVER HAD WHILE TRAVELLING?

San Sebastian in Spain.

5.WHERE ARE YOU LOOKING TO TRAVEL TO NEXT?

Hopefully South Africa in the near future.

6.WHAT PROJECTS ARE YOU CURRENTLY WORKING ON?

I am currently working on Channel 5’s Tanglin at the moment.

7.DO YOU HAVE ANY TIPS OR ADVICE FOR BUDDING ACTORS AND ACTRESSES?

Learn along the way with an open mind and heart.
