  • My daughter is only 10 and she’s already braver than me! 🥹🙌🏽

Over the weekend, we headed up to the top of Table Mountain in Cape Town, where we’re currently spending 6 months. The iconic flat-topped mountain towers over the city, and its top covers an area of 57 sq km, and rimmed with viewpoints. 

When we learned that you can actually abseil down the mountain, Alberto couldn’t be more excited, and so was Kaleya! 🏔️

I, on the other hand, having done abseiling before, wasn’t all too keen. Honestly, since reaching my 40s, I’ve lost interest in seeking thrills this way. 😬

It was pretty nerve-wrecking to watch Kaleya dangle off the edge with nothing but a rope attached. I was amazed by how calm and collected Kaleya was the entire time! She wasn’t nervous or scared at all. In fact she enjoyed the whole experience so much she said she wants to do it again! 

Essential Info:

🪂 How: We went with Cape Extreme Adventure Tours (www.capextreme.com)

💰Cost: R1050 (US$60) per person

👧🏻 Min age: 10 years old

📆 Times: Several departures everyday

⏰ Duration: 1 hour+ for entire experience

Would you go abseiling down Table Mountain? Better yet, would you bring your kids???

  • Living abroad feels like always being in two places at once. 🌍✈️❤️

You leave one home to return to another, but each time you go, you leave pieces of your heart behind. You’re always missing someone, always saying goodbye, always counting down to the next reunion. It’s learning to carry joy and longing at the same time. 🏠💔🥹

It’s beautiful, messy, and complicated… but somehow, it’s always worth it! I’ve been living abroad for 20 years now and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

  • One of the reasons why we chose South Africa as our home base is to TRAVEL and explore more of Africa! 🌍

I’ve climbed the sand dunes of Namibia, floated on the Okavango Delta in Botswana, trekked for hours to see gorillas 🦍 in Uganda, and seen the annual migration in the spectacular Serengeti and Ngorongoro… 🐘🦓🦒

And I CANNOT wait to experience them all  with Kaleya! Africa was my favorite continent for the longest time (until Mexico stole my heart), but now I feel like I’m going back to my old love.

We have an epic trip along South Africa’s Eastern Cape coming up this month, and we’re heading to Madagascar 🇲🇬 right after! And trips to Namibia 🇳🇦 and Botswana 🇧🇼 are in the works.. 

Where else should we go???

  • Just a Tuesday afternoon hike because… Cape Town. 😍

This city isn’t just by the mountains — it’s built around them. Wherever you are, there’s a trail calling our name, and most of them are really accessible.

Today we took on Lion’s Head 🦁⛰️ — Cape Town’s iconic spiral hike.

✨ Distance: ~5km round trip

✨ Time: 2.5-4 hrs (we didn’t go all the way to the summit)

✨ Difficulty: Moderate — mostly a steady climb, but near the top you’ll scramble, climb ladders, and use chains. The first half is suitable for kids.

✨ Reward: Panoramic views over Table Mountain, the city, and the Atlantic that make every step worth it. 🌍🔥

⚠️ Pro tip: As stunning as it is, be mindful. Muggings have been reported, so avoid solo hikes, go during daylight, and stick to the busier times.

Cape Town really makes ordinary Tuesdays feel extraordinary. 💛

This city isn’t just by the mountains — it’s built around them. Wherever you are, there’s a trail calling our name, and most of them are really accessible. Today we took on Lion’s Head 🦁⛰️ — Cape Town’s iconic spiral hike. 
✨ Distance: ~5km round trip 
✨ Time: 2.5-4 hrs (we didn’t go all the way to the summit) 
✨ Difficulty: Moderate — mostly a steady climb, but near the top you’ll scramble, climb ladders, and use chains. The first half is suitable for kids. 
✨ Reward: Panoramic views over Table Mountain, the city, and the Atlantic that make every step worth it. 🌍🔥 ⚠️ Pro tip: As stunning as it is, be mindful. Muggings have been reported, so avoid solo hikes, go during daylight, and stick to the busier times. Cape Town really makes ordinary Tuesdays feel extraordinary. 💛 👋🏻 Hi!

Just a Tuesday afternoon hike because… Cape Town. 😍 
This city isn’t just by the mountains — it’s built around them. Wherever you are, there’s a trail calling our name, and most of them are really accessible. Today we took on Lion’s Head 🦁⛰️ — Cape Town’s iconic spiral hike. 
✨ Distance: ~5km round trip 
✨ Time: 2.5-4 hrs (we didn’t go all the way to the summit) 
✨ Difficulty: Moderate — mostly a steady climb, but near the top you’ll scramble, climb ladders, and use chains. The first half is suitable for kids.
