Late last year I was contacted by a journalist from the Daily Dispatch Newspaper in Port Elizabeth, seeking information on snakes. To make a long story short, I made it into the newspaper…again, and I couldn’t be more stoked. It is crazy to think how far I have come since when I started. The fact that people view me as a reputable source of information is a great honour and I feel very privileged to be seen in such a light. Irrespective of how much I have learnt, and how far I have come, I still believe that I have so much I still need to learn. The world of reptiles is vast and complicated, and I haven’t even scratched the surface of what there is to know.
