Glory lies in the attempt to reach one’s goal and not in reaching it...

Reporting back on what is going on in my country of birth South Africa its sad to say that today its a society of violence fueled by socio economic inequalities and racial differences!

Innocent people are being attacked on the streets of my hometown by violent protesters they want to take what little is left to our minority the very cornerstone of our society our historical university.

We are the young generation we love all and we care for all especially the students I know we just want to get along in peace my country is in need of change I fear for my family I fear for my friends even worse is I am not there to help them I need to be able to get the message out there please help South Africa!

I have changed myself adapted worked on yachts trying to start a business in the states while yachting trying to break through in various industries the world gives great opportunities I am eager to take them and use them to my advantage.

Be the change in the world you would like to see!

You have the opportunity to make a difference to change yourself!

Below Deck - "The experience of reality television"

Out in the Abacos islands in the Bahamas awaited the charter vessel named Eros not knowing what to expect who the crew were the guests and the general reception onboard this vessel!

But yachting has been my career now for the last two and a half years that have gone past so I have grown accustomed to expecting the unexpected.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the moments it has created and most importantly the friends that I have made along my journey.

It has expanded my friendships and relationships across various borders across this globe I have made friends that know me better in the first 15 seconds than the friends I have had that have known me for 20 years!

It has made me want to travel and explore and see the world for what it is especially me being a huge fan of history and taking a liking to it travelling is the best education on this planet everybody can learn something from all cultures around the world.

 I want to go where no one dares to speak of where people say its dangerous I want to help out communities reach out to people discuss there lives share ideas or simple just fall in with there culture.

People might say I am naive but I tend to always see the best in everyone I love all people and find being kind to all will create a better world even when we have differences greed and blindness every human is subject to emotional feelings we are not machines we run on our hearts.

The show put a new emphasis on my life and what I have been doing it has put me up for public scrutiny I have agreed in participating in this and it was a challenge well worth the result.

I hope my blog will find you I will regularly express my thoughts on travelling the show and business ideas I have my website https://emile-kotze.squarespace.com/

HEYO WORLD!

My name is Emile Kotze I was born and raised in a small town named Stellenbosch in South Africa

To start this journey off I got tired of the small town mentality and the socio-economic racial violence in my country that is why at the age of 20 I was burning to leave especially after I just had a broken foot and got a skippers licence.

I was working for my dad at that time and was going to travel to the states to do market research while completing my economics degree through post.

I was very suppressed and not happy my foot put me back and my work gave me no freedom I had no money of my own I was stuck!

When coming to America I heard of yachting and was offer a job I grabbed the opportunity with a smile thinking about the toys the ocean idyllic locations and working for billionaires what could be better? 

Wrong see the people in this industry take there careers so serious that they take any pleasure out of it as an career they take my everyday Emile Smile away yes I smile all the time if I don't you know something is wrong! 

They have been blinded by the materialistic and superficial side of this world and treat people as disposable objects they have forgotten the essential secret to life and that is the Human nature and to enjoy and live in the moment they overload stress upon you thinking that will make you work harder but indeed it does not there are a few that have the balanced approach I have heard of them but unfortunately not worked with yet.

I'm a lover not a fighter I love music and to dance my funky white boy dance adrenaline makes me breath, Nature makes me believe, females make me love all women all over have a unique beauty about them and deserve to be treated with love and respect I love experiencing different cultures and most of all making a difference making people smile where I go!

So Nine countries in the last three years is definitely not enough (USA, Bahamas, Dominican Republic, Porto Rico, Nicaragua, Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru) I need to come to you where ever your country is! Help on my journey help me spread out and discover the greatness of our planet! 

So to get to the point I need some help along the way some donations and accommodation people to extend there hand and show me the way locals in there country I don't want the usual tourist scene I want to experience the real world culture! I do need money though so If you have some spare money available only a little would go a far way! I am planning on doing charity and helping out where ever my path leads me so help me help others !
