He would fly back to South Africa for holidays until he was 16 when it was his last visit for another 16 yrs.

Having being born into the African wilderness the Reserve had a luxury Hotel, so naturally Peter was accustomed to the trade and ended up studying for 3 years at Les Roches University in Switzerland, arguably one of the best hotel schools in the world.
