Constance Lémuria Seychelles: Part 2

January 2, 2013 by Hasmita Nair • Seychelles, Travel • 2 Comments

First and foremost, happy new year to you all! I hope that 2013 is a fabulous year for you, and I look forward to an exciting year for Jozilicious as well. I’m always hesitant to share my travel plans until they’re confirmed (to prevent getting ahead of myself, which I do too much as it is), […]

If you only go on 1 island holiday, go to Seychelles (and stay at a Constance resort)

December 28, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • Seychelles, Travel • 5 Comments

On or about the evening of Sunday 9 December, after a particularly slow week at work.. I found myself fantasising about travelling. Again. I hadn’t made plans for December, apart from 3 nights at Zimbali (which really aren’t worth even blogging about but I will cover that trip sometime over the next few weeks). I […]

Cultural Media Trip to Mauritius

November 29, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • Mauritius, Travel • 0 Comments

I was so excited to be invited on a trip to Mauritius, hosted by the Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority (MTPA). The aim of the trip was to promote their annual Creole festival, which is a culmination of food, music and fun. I had a completely different trip to what I experienced when I last went in January. […]

Exploring Zambia: Victoria Falls and surrounds

So now that you’ve read all about the awesomeness of our base camp, Royal Chundu (read here if you missed that post), it’s time to tell you about all the activities we did. When anyone thinks Zimbabwe, or Zambia for that matter, the first thing that comes to mind is Victoria Falls. One of the […]

October 24, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • Travel, Zambia • 3 Comments

Know when you plan a trip months in advance and look forward to it the entire year? That. Royal Chundu’s website alone got me so excited that I couldn’t wait to get there.Our own 200sqm villa, on a private island overlooking the Zambezi River. Who wouldn’t be excited?! I’ve decided to do 2 blog posts […]

Our magical weekend away at Wild Horses Mountain Lodge- Drakensberg

October 15, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • Drakensberg, Travel • Tags: weekend getaways • 3 Comments

We decided to plan a spontaneous getaway this past weekend. As you might have guessed, my calendar is pretty jam packed at all times, so a free weekend is rare. It so happened that I had a work event that ended early on Friday afternoon, so we thought it would be a waste not to take advantage […]

My Weekend in the Eastern Cape

October 5, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • Plettenberg Bay, Travel • Tags: weekend getaways • 0 Comments

While many of my Joburger friends love going back to their hometowns- whether it’s Dbn, CT or even PE… I hate it. The only 2 things PE has to offer me are my family and the beach. I think that I hate it because I cannot handle small town mentality.. and the city is pretty sad as well. For eg, Vovo Telo […]

My weekend in Durban

September 21, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • Durban, Travel • Tags: weekend getaways • 1 Comment

I went to Durban a week or 2 back. Rishav’s birthday was on the Sunday and all his family is there so we had a really chilled weekend. It ended badly though. I was going straight to the airport after work on Friday, so on Friday morning I made sure the cats had enough food […]

New York FAQs

September 13, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • New York, Travel • 3 Comments

Firstly, I must apologise for how overdue this post is. I’ve been swamped at work, and have been busy every evening so I have basically no free time! Upon my return from NYC, I’ve been getting loads of questions about the city, so I decided to do a short FAQ session here for you 🙂 1. Is NYC […]

New York- the landmarks: part 2, and a special 911 tribute

September 11, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • New York, Travel • 1 Comment

While I initially intended not to split up the “landmarks” posts, Part 1 was already getting too long, so I had to. It worked out pretty well though, because of course, today is 911, and I am going to be covering the 911 memorial in this post. Let’s start with NYC’s main attraction- the Statue […]

New York- the landmarks, part 1

September 7, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • New York, Travel • 5 Comments

Finally, this week has come to an end. I have struggled through most of it and have had to force myself out of bed in the mornings because I am STILL jetlagged. Previously, I would easily fall asleep at 21:30… now I find myself repeatedly refreshing my Twitter timeline wide awake at 23:30. I’m getting […]

New York: Shopping and Eating

September 4, 2012 by Hasmita Nair • New York, Travel • 5 Comments

Thanks for reading my first New York post, and for all the feedback I got 🙂 If you missed it, click here. Because I went a bit overboard with planning this trip, I already had a rough idea of what we wanted to do on each day, so we didn’t waste any time. Day 2 […]
