    Steven Billington

    I was born and raised in Cape Town South Africa, a country and city vibrant and unique. I have traveled many avenues in life looking for fulfillment, but it wasn't until I turned to God that I discovered my true path. I finally realize that in God’s hands and with His direction I have renewed vigor and purpose.Drawing from a desire to understand the depth of love and complexity of human nature gives me the ability to transport you to another time and place with few words. I will attempt to soothe the restlessness in you, leaving you with a sense of connection, whether to yourself or others.
