Koekemoer unpacks
April 24th, 2008
"Vernon Koekemoer's calendar goes straight from March 31st to April 2nd. No one fools Vernon Koekemoer."
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. Nothing could be closer to the truth with Vernon Koekemoer who, after having his photo taken at the H2O party in Boksburg has become an internet sensation.
He's surpassed Chuck and the Hoff with leagues of jokes attesting to his manliness, not to mention a string of photoshop-ped images and videos. His Facebook group has over 4 000 members, and he's even been featured on Sky News in Britain.
GoTravel24 catches up with the Koekmeister…
.jpg)
Gotravel24: Thanks to some telling pictures, you're now famous from Boksburg to Bangkok - where's your favourite place in the world?
Mauritius. Never been there but it's one of my goal vacations.
You've been dubbed 'Vernon Koekemoer' by your fans, but what name would you have chosen for yourself?
Darrius... I definitely would not have chosen the surname Koekemoer! But I must not look a gift horse in the mouth. Most probably the name had a lot to do with the whole package.
Now that you're 'famous', does it bother you being recognized while on holiday?
No, not at all. I have always been approached by people because of how I look.
You're well known for your tight shorts and cut-off check tops tied at the front- what do you wear when travelling?
Pretty much the same.
Which do you prefer - tanning in the gym or on the beach?
Definitely tanning on the beach - I enjoy being outdoors.
What's the secret to that glossy hairdo?
Whatever shampoo catches my eye when I go to the supermarket.
What's your favourite Vernon Koekemoer joke?
I don't really have one... I enjoy the photo imaging ones with regards to Chuck. (Here's a selection for those of you that haven't seen them yet - Ed)
Chuck or The Hoff?
Chuck - no question about it.
Travelling in style is…
A 4 x 4, a full cooler box and sexy blonde companion.
What do you keep in your coolbox?
Ice and my alcoholic beverage for the day.
Are you a walking holiday itinerary or a spontaneous relaxation rebel?
Definitely a spontaneous relation rebel. I would never buy travel guides or plan a holiday excursion a year before the time.
Your ideal travel companion is…
Good communicator, willing, able… and blond.
You say your ideal travel companion is blond - would this be more Charlize Theron or Patricia Lewis?
More like Charlize.
You never travel without your ….
Fishing rods and cooler box.
Tip to make and not break the holiday ….
Go with friends that would enjoy the same type of holiday.
What keeps you coming back for more …
I take holidays/breaks that still take the form of me being physically active. Therefore fishing and being in the bush keeps me reverting back to this type of holiday.
Be like the Koekmeister and enjoy the take a holiday break with some of our packages.

Good on you
I say good luck to Vern. He is making the most of it and making other people happy in the process. He does not take himself too seriously and I think in this stressful time, it is good to have somebody like him. I wish him the best of luck.
Da Man
You have to Respect the Koek !!!!!!!! :-)

You inspire all us people with big musles to go to H2O and make sumfing of ourselves lives and stuff. Your 7 different kinds of smokes scares the living sh!t out of The Hoffy, Chucky and Schalky Burger - them can like to go to sleep wearing your pj's! And them like it! You must know... I hope you enjoy the fame and one day, maybe one day I will have the honour of dancing beside you at H2O! You rock dude!
Salute!!!
