  • 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. 💛

  • 🌸 Spring has officially sprung in South Africa! 🌸

September 1st marks the start of spring in South Africa, and it’s flower season in the West Cape! 

From mid-August to late September, Western Cape transforms into a carpet of daisies, vygies, and gousblom in every color imaginable. 

Over the weekend, we explored the West Coast National Park (1hour from Cape Town) where thousands of flower species are on full bloom along the coast. 🌼✨

The best area within the national park to visit is Postberg Nature Reserve — open only during spring and hands-down the best spot to see the blooms in full glory. 🌿💛

✨ Tips for your visit:

▫️ Go early — weekends get super busy + the morning light is magical
▫️ Bring a picnic or enjoy the food trucks (boerewors rolls and smash burgers on offer)
▫️ Keep an eye out for wildlife — we spotted wild ostriches and eland alongside the flowers 🦓🦌
▫️ Flower season isn’t just here — Ive heard that Renosterveld Reserve, Namaqualand, and Citrusdal are even more beautiful
