Finally, after a whirlwind 3 weeks away, I’m home. I was quite pensive on the looong flight home, so I wrote the below post sharing my thoughts about the trip. I‘m writing from the air, somewhere between Nice and Amsterdam. We were up at 3am this morning, and we still have a good 13 hours […]

A few weeks ago, I joined over 70 other media in Joburg City, for a weekend of exploration and fun. I covered the event in a double spread for the Sunday Independent, which you can read here. To be quite honest, if I didn’t work in the city, my knowledge of it would probably be […]

Some time ago, I attended the launch of SkinCeuticals- advanced professional skincare backed by science. Luckily, I don’t have very problematic skin.

Save the Date: The House and Leisure Night Market on 16 May

May 9, 2013 by Hasmita Nair • Lifestyle • 0 Comments

I love markets. I think the thing I love about them is that going to a market is an outing in itself, unlike shopping in a mall where you usually shop for a purpose. Even if I don’t buy anything, I like walking around and admiring all the stalls. I saw an ad for the […]

A while ago, the peeps at BMW offered me one of their cars to drive for a week. I’ve never really been into cars, but I did my first car review when we drove to Hoedspruit to visit Camp Jabulani and I looooved it. I drive a manual BMW 118i, and I was always very […]

Up to anything exciting next weekend? No? Well, you have to get to the 2013 Winter Sculpture Fair, happening at the NIROX Sculpture Park, near the Cradle of Humankind on 4-5 May. There are so few quality leisure options available outside of the city, which means that we’re confined to staying within Jhb most weekends. I’m always […]

Hair Makeover at Midori Eco Salon*

I’ve been trying to grow out my hair because I want to do things like the sock bun and fish braids etc. But now that it’s long, I end up leaving it loose most days, and it just… hangs. So boring. Recently, I went to Midori Eco Salon in the World Trade Centre in Sandton (the […]
