Welcome to the journey

Let me introduce myself my name is John Varty although people call me JV. Throughout my life I have been in no less than 13 hospitals around the world including hospitals in New York, Bloemfontein, Nelspruit and Cape Town.

I have had malaria 14 times, I have 3 crushed vertebrae from a helicopter crash, 4 broken ribs from a Tiger attack, I have had Melanoma Cancer and triple bypass heart surgery.

My autobiography is called "Nine Lives" so I thought is appropriate that I call my website johnvartyalive.com
