Hello hello! Since my last post, things have picked up a lot. Last week was completely consuming- socially, mentally, physically. I had no time to even think about anything else. I’m not quite sure how to start telling you about it… so maybe I’ll start at the beginning. The first few days were all about getting […]
Over the past few years. I’ve loved getting to know Joburg’s inner city, an area that was “off-limits” to me for so long. However, I have to admit that I did this on my terms- on a touristy inner city bus or in food markets bustling with visitors, as opposed to residents, and within somewhat […]
Hello everyone! See, I told you I wouldn’t abandon you once arriving in Singapore. Thanks so much to everyone who sent me messages to see how we were doing. Honestly, it hasn’t been smooth sailing. Let me tell you, the idea of moving across the world is a lot more exciting in theory than reality. […]
Hello everyone! I haven’t had much time to really focus on the blog. I’m writing from the Slow Lounge at OR Tambo (I wish I could just move in here- I LOVE this place.) Our flight is delayed for an hour and a half- I’m secretly glad because I really wanted to write this post […]
While the thought of moving across the world is very exciting, actually doing it- not so much. I’ve probably never been as stressed out in my life, so I thought I would share the tips that helped me along the way. 1. Passports I know, it sounds obvious, but my passport was almost full and […]
I had such a great time last night at Madame Zingara at Montecasino. I’ve been a fan of them since they launched. If you don’t know about Madame Zingara yet or haven’t yet been to a show, you NEED to go. Basically it’s a dinner and show concept, but it also transports you into another […]
Having a blog puts you out there. While this blog has brought me some amazing opportunities, I’ve also been criticized- it comes with the territory. One other thing that happens a lot is review requests. I’ve been asked to review an entire 5kg fish from a fishery, baby food, random guest lodges in the middle […]
I thought I would be really really excited as it got closer to my last day, but instead, I’m quite sad- about leaving the people, not the job. Spending 8 hours a day with the same people for 4 years is bound to build relationships, and I’m really going to miss the people I work […]
This week is quite a significant one for me in the timeline of my adult life. It’s my last week at a company I’ve worked at for 4 years and it’s my first time taking time out from working after 8 years. I’ve been reflecting over my career and I wanted to document and share […]
While I know it seems that I’m always out and about, I actually enjoy “quiet time” just as much. I never used to be this way. About 5 years ago, I constantly needed to be surrounded by people. I actually got anxious when I didn’t have plans, or had to be home alone. To solve […]

Kitchen Passion, (you are probably familiar with their Sandton City store close to Cotton On), is having a HUGE clearance sale next weekend (Fri and Sat from 10am-1pm), and they are offering an amazing prize to my readers. Note that the sale is only happening […]

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a good week. On my side, I seem to have caught an INSEAD bug that’s going around, so I’m feeling a bit under the weather. I’m taking it easy this morning ahead of a BIG weekend, the Grand Prix is happening all weekend in Singapore- with performances by […]
