  • ‘Life is better with a Little Italian’ – Pink Mama’s

    Pink Mama’s is housed within a beautifully restored home, its painted a signature soft pink. The indoor dining area opens onto a terrace overlooking the Padel courts.

  • January Book Review

    …‘Love is crushing. Love is something you let yourself feel at your own peril, despite your better sense’…  I read this book on a Saturday, and I couldn’t put it down, it was that good. A deeply moving story with an intricate throuple. The story follows a young woman nicknamed Daisy, later known as Jordan –…

  • Exploring Joburg’s Culinary Delights at Mila Restaurant

    Food tells a story that imprints memories.   One thing about Joburgers — myself included — is that we truly appreciate the good life, and this was clear the day we headed out for a late lunch at Mila Restaurant at LXX in Sandton. From the moment we arrived, we stepped into an unhurried yet vibrant atmosphere, with patrons enjoying business lunches…

  • 2025 Reading!

    “Something magical can happen when we read a good book.” Books have a unique power to take us to places we may never physically go – they offer an escape. The stories allow our imagination to travel freely, introducing us to new ideas, perspectives and igniting our imagination. Two years ago, I started being intentional…

  • Vegan lunching in Cape Town – Plant Cafe

    There one thing that I like about Cape Town (CT) is its abundance of eateries, restaurants and cafe.

  • “The Warmest Place To Be” – DURBAN

    For a person who visits Durban quite frequently, you would think that I would have blogged about this coastal city by now. I guess for me, I have always seen Durban as “My home away from home” – I spent 5 years of my adolescence years in the Natal Midlands and we would visit Durban…

  • USA Adventure: Miami – Los Angeles (LA) – New York (NY)

    It’s #TravelTuesday!! I get to reminisce about a trip we took to the US early in the year. Brace yourself for some reading, so much to share, I will try and not make this blog post a Thesis:-) The trip sure had its own share of drama – misplaced passports with our US VISA’s, lost…

  • Stellenbosch – The Town Of Oaks #TBT

    Today I was feeling rather nostalgic about places I had visited on work and family travel, so once a month, I will do a #TBT or #FBF feature and relive the wonderful experience and memories. One of the places I fell in love with is a little town in the Western Cape renowned for its…

  • The Jungle

    It’s always such a treat when one finds hidden gems in Jozi, my recent discovery is a place called The Jungle in Craighall. The place has been transformed from an old antique/furniture showroom to an awesome retail concept space. Inside the Jungle you will find a florist, a café, and a creatively structured retail space…
