Hi, I’m Roelien Visagie, although most people know me as Lien. Some say it’s because “Roelien” has too many letters, others say it’s because life is simply too short for formalities!
Originally from the beautiful town of Potchefstroom, I made what can only be described as one of the best decisions of my life when my family and I packed up and moved to the coastal paradise of Hartenbos a year ago. Between the ocean views, incredible community, and relaxed lifestyle, it quickly became home.
I’m a proud mom to two amazing children and have been happily married to my husband for seven wonderful years (and counting!). Family has always been at the heart of everything I do, and it’s one of the reasons I’m so passionate about helping others create life-changing experiences and memories of their own.
After finishing high school, my family and I embarked on our own international adventure and moved to Australia, where I began my studies in Criminology. During those four years, I had the opportunity to travel to some truly incredible countries, immerse myself in different cultures, meet people from all walks of life, and experience the world in a way that completely changed my perspective.
I’ll never forget the feeling of stepping into a new country for the first time — the excitement, the wonder, the nerves, and the realization of just how big and beautiful our world really is. Those experiences sparked a lifelong love for travel and cultural exchange.
Today, through World Voyage, I have the privilege of helping others embark on their own international journeys. Whether it’s working abroad, exploring new destinations, meeting lifelong friends from around the globe, or simply discovering what they’re capable of outside their comfort zone, I love being part of that first step.
Because sometimes the best thing you can do is book the ticket, take the chance, and let the adventure change your life.
