Who doesn’t love a road trip? There’s nothing better than rolling the windows down while turning your favourite music up, with South Africa’s stunning scenery around you. One of my favourite road trips to do from Joburg is the drive to Kruger. Most people make Kruger their only destination, but there are quite a few […]
I love getting notifications on my phone. Whether it’s Facebook, whatsapp or Instagram.. I’m definitely addicted to my phone, and I’m not embarrassed to admit it! Whenever I get a spam SMS- it’s such a downer. When I heard about Truemessenger, an app designed to block spam SMS’s, I had to check it out for […]
Woodlands Centre for Conscious Living in Muldersdrift is one of my favourite spas- more for the location and aesthetic than anything else. I featured them in this post I wrote about my 5 favourite massages in Jozi. It’s situated on the banks of the Crocodile River (near Avianto), and the therapy rooms have glass walls […]
Hello there! It’s been close to two weeks since I moved to Cape Town and I’m loving it! I somehow got really lucky in that I got a job at a company that is pretty much perfect for me, and I get to work in their Cape Town office while I wait for my UK […]
When I was overseas, I built up a wish list of food I had to eat while in SA. On that list: pasta at Franco’s, butter chicken at Currylicious, a chip roll from Fateema’s, and pizza from Col’cacchio. So when the latter’s PR got in touch with me and asked if I wanted to review their latest special, […]
Since I started writing- first on this blog, and then professionally- I’ve realized that I find gratification not from the process of writing, but more from the result of the writing- whether its inspiring others, or making a difference in their lives- like giving a reader the extra push they needed to book a holiday, […]
As much as I love Joburg, my usual weekend does tend to get a bit tired after a while. Admittedly, the concrete jungle doesn’t have much to offer outside of shopping or eating, but a short drive outside the city will find you at some of the country’s most beautiful destinations. Here are the top […]
Hello there! I’ve just returned back to Fontainebleau after a fabulous weekend in the Loire Valley. It’s quite a mission to get to the airport from where I am, so we’ve been doing more road trips within France. It’s such a beautiful country and there’s lots to see, but I’m slowly making headway. This weekend […]
I’ve been meaning to write this post pretty much since I arrived in France, which was 6 weeks ago. Can’t believe how fast the weeks are flying by. The reality that the MBA will soon come to an end is becoming horribly clear and I’m feeling really sad about it. I can’t tell you how […]
Hi all! So my attempt at getting back into blogging was short-lived- because I’m now currently in the midst of recruiting and it’s really intense. Last week I had EIGHT interviews, and this week I have 4. I’ve been doing so much travelling so it’s unfortunate that I can’t share more with you.. but in […]
Hello there! In my last post about Maldives, I told you about Kandolhu– a stunning 5 star resort. Today, I wanted to tell you about the other resort we experienced, Kuramathi. To be honest, I was quite grumpy when we arrived. Our flight landed at 11am, and we had to wait at the Male airport […]
As Airlines values rise, will savings be passed onto customers?

Last week budget airline EasyJet announced their October 2015 sales figures, and as expected they reported a month on month rise compared to September. This builds upon an already record breaking first-half profit announced in May, and with the company relying heavily on summer tourism it seems 2015 is set to eclipse all records set […]
