The best things in life are free

The last few days have been unbelievable. My evenings have been comprised of great conversations and unexpected nights out. I don’t have a dime to my name but somehow (thanks to my loving friends) have managed to have a fantastic week.


Art Exhibitions, drinks in new bars, discovering Tagores in Observatory, wine at Cine Ganesh, first time visits to Spring Boks & Tin roof in Claremont (Yes, I see the shock on your face 3 years in Cape Town and you haven’t ever set foot there until now?!), re-connecting with friends I have been neglecting and missing so dearly. An overall winner of a week.


Friday was a lucky packet of music, discovering a “Smokie” in Woodstock, live bands at house parties, great punch (that kicked one helluva punch) & making friends with cops that were disturbing the fun.



Saturday brought an early morning – painful given my state the night before (a few hours to be exact). But composure was necessary. Great meeting that promises the beginning of something amazing. Catching up with a well-missed friend over tea and re-acquainting myself with my life journal.


Sunday was my gift to my friends I combined 2 of my favourite loves (Cooking & touching people) a “So Long Summer” gathering; where I prepared some Mexican cuisine with the great help of some absolutely amazing, loving people and gave foot & back massages.


Topped the night off with a visit to watch a jazz band play at Tagores in Obs and a giggling fit of a girly chat while snuggled in bed before drifting off to sleep.


A fantastic week. Thank you Cape Town.
