What a magical weekend. Right, let us get the background first. I have been interested in attending the MTN Bush Fire Festival for the last three years. It seemed so worldly and care-free. But, I could never really afford it – very common issue, I’d say. This year (27-29 May 2016), the universe was on […]
I love being a good Samaritan. I love listening to peoples’ stories. I love seeing people change their lives for the better. So, I just love seeing human beings practicing ubuntu. I have been involving myself in numerous projects. Great projects, where both parties benefit. Recently, I have become more drawn to the skating and […]
What a beautiful weekend filled with laughter, dances, Thai spring rolls, sushi, family braai, a walk with monkeys and Hadeda Ibises and a relaxing Sunday. I started off the weekend with a catch up at the Musgrave Roof Top Night Market. I have moved away from just eating Falafels. I have discovered amazing Thai Spring […]
“I am here for a good time, not a long time.” Yes, I did just quote a hip hop/rap song. It’s quite catchy and so true. Better make the most of it, right? This has made me realise, once again, that this year has been rather wonderful. Gratitude is all I can offer at the […]
Sanibonani! Everyone that knows me pretty well knows that I love my slops. Well, it’s either I walk around barefoot or it’s the slops. It’s just so darn comfortable.. It’s Friday, Spring and sunny. Why not? Oh, hello! So, the office got involved, too! Happy Friday 🙂 With love, x
I enjoy being outside, as you may have figured out. Beautiful Saturday morning at the Green Camp in Umbilo, Durban. Naturally, being a hippy. This space is the epitome of the recycling concept! The building itself is recycled! It is an old dilapidated house that has been transformed in to a homey, relaxing space. A […]
The Low Down In the time where nations are divesting in dirty energy such as coal and nuclear, South Africa, one of the largest economies in Africa decides to invest in almost R1 trillion in nuclear energy. This comes at a time when South Africa is having a serious energy crisis. Loadshedding, a period of […]
I have a colleague from Algeria! Wonderful gentleman with a sense of humour that will leave you stunned half of the time. In a good way. He really has a lifetime of knowledge. Anyway, I am African and I really do not know so much about many African countries. He decided to educate us a […]
Well, my mother is. I tagged along to help her out. On the 16 May, my mother had her little tea garden stall at a local Flea Market. This was not just any flea market. She was taking part to raise funds for Ningizimu Special School. Ningizimu is a school for children, up to the […]
I can use my limbs again! Also, what I did not know was that you find little boys shouting out “SWEETS” when you drive past. Apparently, it is quite common in the more rural townships. We had about four boys herding some livestock shouting out for these sweets. We had to stop and wait for […]
