Fried bream Fish with Morogo and Pap
What’s the best local dish you’ve ever eaten while traveling? In 2023 I traveled to Zambia 🇿🇲 and my Zambian friends took me out for lunch at a local food restaurant. OMG! I ate the most delicious meal. To this day I still think of that meal.
Haarties Hiking Trail: Fatcakes, Fog & Fabtastic People
“Everybody gets a car!” 😂 Okay fine, not Oprah level giveaways, but we did hand out fatcakes and chocolates, which in hiking currency is basically the same thing.

Piesangkloof!
What an adventure! There’s nothing quite like the thrill of hiking a new trail, it’s like unwrapping a present, except the gift is sweat, sore calves, days of recovery and breathtaking views. This time, we found ourselves Magaliesberg, and oh my word, my South Africa is gorgeous. Lately, we seem to have developed a habit…
My kids and myself
Who do you spend the most time with? I spend good amount of time with my kids and also by myself. I enjoy my own company. Of course do make time for my relatives and my friends. As you grow older you realize relationships are more important than anything else; priceless .
