Gerard Feris is 23 years old and lives in Cape Town. He holds a Journalism degree and an honours degree in Media and Cultural studies from the University of Pretoria. During his years at varsity, he resided in Sonop Men's Residence and also served on the house committee. Gerard thoroughly enjoyed his student years and wouldn't trade them in for anything in the world!
Over the years he has lived in many different towns as his family moved around a lot. He believes that his nomadic childhood must've contributed to his great love for travel. Gerard considers himself privileged to have picked up quite a few friends along the way and values all his friendships.
He enjoys working out and keeping fit. Other hobbies include watching series, movies and sport. He also likes staying informed and constantly stays in touch with the world around him, be it through social networking, watching documentaries, and reading magazines and newspapers. He believes that an informed society will be able to make better decisions about how to make the world a better place.
As he is a fun-loving individual, dreamer and optimist, the cheesiest way to describe him would be a "South Afri-CAN".
