The Wanderer is my stand-up journey of growing up in South Africa moving to New York, Portugal, New Zealand, China never fitting in, attending countless schools, feeling like the odd one out. I met my husband in China and moved to Northern Ireland. It’s about motherhood, breastfeeding, heartbreak, scams, cults and the whirlwind of being woman.
