I love Cape Town


I have travelled to a few places in the world but always get a lump in my throat when I return back to this gorgeous place I call home. I absolutely love being in Cape Town because despite what people may say, it is by far the best place to be anywhere in the world.  Summer days and nights are spent mainly outdoors soaking up the sunshine, sipping mocktails and sharing stories around the braai with friends and family. I especially enjoy spending time acting like a tourist in my own city just to appreciate it a little more.  Here are some highlights of our beautiful city and the surrounds.
