Hi My name is Andries and I am from South Africa. I was born and raised in South Africa but I feel it's time to let go of the roots and plant them somewhere else in the world. I am an energetic person full of jokes, smiles and laughs. I always try to see the positive side of all the negative but it is not always as easy as it sounds and sometimes it does affect my state of mood but mostly I am always smiling and laughing. I always take pride in job and in the work that I am doing. I am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to certain thigs. I love being active in my current sport namely playing paintball. It has become more that a hobby for me, it has become my passion. The rush, the adrenaline, the feeling you get when you give it your all and come out stronger at the end is indescribable. When meeting new people, it will look like I'm shy and reserved, but it is only because I don't know them. Once I listen to them and start to get to know them I open up to the conversation and actively take part in it.I do not quite easily and give my best in everything I take on. I feel and think that I am somebody that can be relied on to be there when needed.
I joined expat.com on 14 July 2015.
I finished High school here and started working right after my final year at school. I have been living here for 15 years. I have worked for various companies since the start of 2005, from being a waiter to being a manager to my current position as an apprentice.
