Greetings, and welcome to the personal and professional website of Darren Van Zyl. Thank you for your visit and it is my sincere hope that you will enjoy the time you spend looking around.
I am an advanced life support paramedic based in Johannesburg, South Africa and am keenly interested in all aspects of adult learning and education. My passion for the training of emergency care extends far beyond the classroom where I take an active part in many other activities and interests. Such fascinations include all aspects of the things that make people tick... I'm absorbed at the moment with graphology and the wonderful positive aspects of hypnosis, especially within the confines of my faith.
Personally I'm full of contradictions and surprizes and love to melt my ice-cream before I eat it. I love food, and if I didn't have such a rapid metabolism I'd be the size of a piano... which I sometimes like to play to relieve stress. Alternative health and the power of nutrition have siezed my interest, too-and I honestly belive in the endless possibilities that this entials. I'm blessed to have many people in my life who I share a deep connection with and never find myself lacking contentment.
My favourite quote (at the moment) is an apt way to sum up my views on life and people in general:
"Those who dance were thought quite insane by those who could not hear the music"
May love be with you.
