I'm hoping to get his number later from a friend coz he might be able to get me into a learnership. A learnership is like an internship, but atleast it will pay for travelling and MIGHT lead to a job. I don't even know in which field it is, will find out more later.

I am pulling for you. I hope you get that learnership. Often who you know matters more than what your know: networking. I know that I would not be able to get a permanent position at my work without working casual, which is what I am doing right now.
