Family:
I live with my Mom, younger sister, my Aunty and two cousins and my Gran and Grandpa. I love my big happy family – even when they get a bit crazy. But sometimes I need to find my own space and be quite by myself.
Pets:
Honey, the smartest cat in the world has adopted me. When it gets too mad at my house, she slinks out and finds a quiet space at Jody’s place. We pretty much share her!
Languages:
English and a bit of Afrikaans, Zulu and Hindi
