South Africa

South Africa and Namibia, G Adventures

From South Africa to Namibia

From endless sand dunes, to an epic canyon. With seals and dolphins, and elephants and giraffes – this is my trip through South Africa and Namibia!

Things to do in Stellenbosch, South Africa

Why you should go to South Africa’s Stellenbosch

South Africa has heaps of amazing destinations – but there’s nothing quite like Stellenbosch. Here’s why you should consider it for your next holiday!

Cooking with Love, Cape Malay cooking class, Cape Town, South Africa

Cooking with Love

What better way to learn a bit about Cape Malay food than from an expert in her Cape Town kitchen. Turns out I learned even more about the local community!

Robben Island tour review, Cape Town, South Africa

The disappointing Robben Island experience

Robben Island – the political prison off Cape Town in South Africa – represents so much emotional history. So why is visiting it such a disappointment?

Chenin blanc wines, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Grape Expectations

South African wine producers are getting ready to take on the world with their own ‘national treasure’ – the Chenin blanc grape. Have you heard of it?

South African safari photos

Photos from safari in South Africa

A collection of photos of the animals and landscapes that I was able to discover while on safari for a few days in South Africa near Kruger National Park.

Bongani Mountain Lodge, Mthetomusha Game Reserve, South Africa

The eyes and the mouth of safari

On safari in South Africa there are two people with me for every trip – Jabu the spotter and Skigh the ranger. The two couldn’t be from more different backgrounds.

Braamfontein, Johannesburg, South Africa

The hipster Johannesburg

Johannesburg may be Africa’s most visited city but it’s also got a bad reputation. Now a largescale renewal project is changing that – and making it cool!

public art in stellenbosch, sculptures, reflections

Reflections of Stellenbosch

The aim of the public sculpture exhibition in the South African city of Stellenbosch is to make art accessible to everyone – and stimulate reflections.
