What are some of the pros and cons of being a Durban girl?
Very few cons, however the list of pros could go on forever but to name a few, we have the best of both worlds, the beach and nature. The lovely warm weather, as well as the friendly warm-hearted people.

What time of year is the best to be in Durban?
December, we have the most incredible atmosphere that time of year. Very festive.

What other local cities are your favourite and would you consider moving to them?
I’d move to Cape Town anyday. No explanation needed. That place is heaven on earth.

If you won a trip to anywhere in the world, where would you go and who would you take with?
Hmmm… that would have to be an island like the Seychelles or Maldives. I’d definitely take my man. My best friend, training partner and boyfriend all in one.

Do blondes really have more fun?
Being blonde has its perks. No matter who you are or what you look like, when a blonde walks into a room everyone notices. It can be quite the confidence booster. A confident girl is a happy girl and a happy girl is bound to have fun. So to answer your question… yes indeed, I do feel blondes have more fun.

Tell us how you got into the fitness scene and what are you hoping to get out of it?
I fell in love with the fitness scene the first day I ever stepped foot into a gym. I knew right there and then that I wanted to dedicate my life to this sport. My biggest dream is to compete at the Olympics and it would also be a dream come true to make the cover of Fitness mag or Women’s health.

What is the best part about training?
I couldn’t even point out the best thing. I’d say the endorphin rush, that feeling of accomplishment when you’ve pushed yourself passed your limits as well as looking in the mirror, flexing and seeing your body change its form all due to the blood, sweat and tears you put in. That is very rewarding.

Do you ever get to let loose with such a strict lifestyle?
We are all human and I do slip up every once in a while. All in moderation though. I allow myself one cheat meal a week and I really don’t hold back. But other than that, not really. I’m not the type to go out and get smashed. A glass or two of Vino does it for me.

Cheat days. What do they entail?
Pizza and chocolate… lots of it!

What type of guy gets your heart rate up?
A true Gentleman with a soft heart, good morals, and a sense of humour. I like to laugh… a lot.

What things do guys do that grab your attention and make you go weak at the knees?
A naughty side smile, a wink and kiss on the forehead.

If we had to take you on a date, what would you expect from us?
Nothing materialistic really. The most important thing for me is good company. If you can make me laugh, hold good conversation and show respect we are A for away.

And if we executed everything perfectly, how would the date end?
A nice goodnight hug. Anything more than that, I’d be selling myself short.
