Ilse Zietsman is a language nerd working with words, mostly as a travel journalist. To travel is her passion; she has been to 56 countries thus far and is always planning the next trip, whether it’s pounding the pavements of the inner city, gravel road wandering outside of Cape Town or an off-beat destination that requires a plane ticket clutched in hand. Learning, doing or experiencing something new gets her on a high, as does reading. The rest of the time she can be found in the kitchen cooking up a storm… or cuddling her cats fondly known as the Spice Girls.
