Hey everyone! I have had so many things to share with you that it has taken some time before I’ve gotten you up to date with what I’ve been doing for the last 2 weeks. So here comes an update on what I’ve been up to lately! First of all, I have gotten myself a […]
Muizenberg was such a stunning little city so I thought you might enjoy some photos. Muizenberg is known for its amazing surfing conditions as well as the very colourful houses that you can find on its beach. I won’t write too much this time, you can just enjoy the pictures 🙂 It has quite the train ride too! […]
After I had finished my scuba diving course, I thought I would challenge myself just a little bit further by trying some suurfing! It didn’t take long before I learned that surfing is not easy! I knew it would be difficult, because I’ve never quite understood how those surfers get up on their boards, but that I […]
During my stay in Muizenberg I stayed at a place called Stoked Bakcpackers and I just wanted to share some pictures of how I lived for that week. Stoked was located exactly 30 seconds from the train station, so although I had to hear the trains pass by when I was in my room, it […]
It was the last day of our scuba diving Open Water course and I would probably rank it as one of the top 10 days in my life. I still can’t believe it really took place, it did indeed feel like it was a bit too good to be true and I feel extremely privileged and […]
It was Day 3 of the scuba diving course, and it was time to take our first breaths in the ocean. We packed all our gear and loaded them in a car before we headed off to Long Beach. Once we got there we got dressed in our way too small and tight wet suits and assembled […]
It was Wednesday and Day 2 of my scuba diving course! We started by getting all our gear sorted. For those of you who aren’t too familiar with scuba diving this is what you need: A BCD : this is the ‘backpack’ you wear when you scuba dive, which can be inflated or deflated and […]
Hello! Last week, I had one of the best weeks of my life. It has been like living a dream and I’ve enjoyed every moment of it! I thought I would share my week with you day by day because there has been a lot going on! Just to brake it to you, I did […]
Finally after lots of internet problems – here’s a lot for all of you to read! Like Karen Blixen’s movie was called Mitt Africa, My Africa in Norwegian, I wanted to share some of my thoughts after working 5 weeks at a children’s home in a township, to share My Africa. It’s quite an essay, but I […]
I just had one more story about dear Miss Pat that I thought you might enjoy. Some of you back home from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, of a slightly older age, might have heard of a woman called Karen Blixen or perhaps the movie Out of Africa (in Norwegian it’s called ‘Mitt Africa’ (My Africa)). Whether […]
