The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.
OVC is a place where you are completely taken care of and an amazing opportunity to gain the most incredible memories. I wake up every day, proud to work and represent OVC!
Travelling is one of my passions in life and I would love to help other young travellers to fulfil their travelling dreams.

I never knew I had this passion for travelling until OVC offered me this dream job! "If you get a job you love, you will never work a day in your life." It brings me great joy to help young people grow and experience different cultures all over the world. Life is really too short to stay in one place forever. I have been to the UK at a young age and their way of doing things fascinated me. I loved the whole vibe and eating different foods - I don not want someone going through life staying in their comfort zone. When in doubt - TRAVEL!

Hi future travellers,
My journey with OVC started when I applied for the Au pair Netherlands program in 2011 and lived with a wonderful family in Delft, Zuid-Holland for 1 year. During this time I travelled to Belgium, Italy, France, and Germany and extensively within the Netherlands itself. I came back to South Africa in September 2012 and realized that my passion is to help other young travel-minded people to take the first step and discover what the world has to offer.
I joined OVC Pretoria in 2014 and every day brings joy seeing other travellers who are making their dreams a reality. I have also had the opportunity to travel to the USA joining the au pair Academy in New York and see what our students are up to working at Gaylord Texas in Grapevine, Texas. I also went to Chiang Mai, Thailand to experience how our clients become TEFL qualified teachers.
I am passionate about what I do and have won several awards within OVC, from Top-Performing Consultant in OVC, Hospitality Internship, Au Pair USA and Netherlands, Teach Abroad to Student Work.
Take the first step, apply for our awesome programs and make the world your oyster. You only live once!

Franchise Owner
My journey with the OVC has taken me from one adventure to the next! Fresh home from my gap years in the United States, I began consulting in the early days of 2004. I watched the OVC grow from strength to strength, and we are proud to say we are the leaders in SA youth travel! I’m currently the franchise owner of OVC East Rand, Johannesburg. Limpopo, Mpumalanga, North West, Namibia and Pretoria. We have fantastic crew members countrywide, eager to help young travellers reach their dreams of exploring the world!
My passion, travels and knowledge of the United States culture have put me in the role of managing OVC American programs: Au Pair USA, USA Hospitality Internships and Camp America. I personally handle each and every applicant that enter into these programs, ensuring that all our young travellers are well taken care of when on their American adventure!
My gap year afforded me the opportunity to live in the United States for 2 years as an au pair and to travel extensively throughout the USA. My travels have taken me to the UK and Ireland, Africa, Middle East and one of my favourite areas, the Far East! Travelling allows you to experience new cultures, new people, new adventures and make lifetime memories. To all those inspired to travel, to find new adventures and to discover themselves, I encourage you to take the steps I have. You will never regret your decision to venture out of South Africa!
