Christo Lombard

Originally from Pretoria, I moved to Cape Town in 2006 to commence my degree in Theatre and Performance (specialising in acting) at UCT. I graduated in 2009 and have been reading news for FMR since July 2010. I am a listener of classical music, though the word “listen” is perhaps more suited to songs of the popular genre. In experiencing a symphony for example, one would rather “contemplate” its meaning or attempt inwardly sketch the outline of a story be it intentional or unintentional. Reading is one of my favourite pastime and I appreciate fiction from various genres. I speak English, Afrikaans and hope to be fluent in French. As for my taste in film I have a particular interest in French and other European cinema.
