So recently, Mia Musings has moved to the UK! Interesting times lie ahead I am sure, but the sunny South African shores are still being sorely missed. For those who know this blog and me, would know that Mia is my dog and if we left, she would have left too! Now pet transport is…
I knew this was not forever…I also knew that when it ends, it would be heart breaking. But that did not stop me from giving my all and getting back even more! After 3.5 wonderful years and with more memories than I can count, it’s finally time for K, Mia and me to finally say…
My friends from Pakistan had been harping about a new restaurant that recently opened its doors in Fordsburg. A well-known chain from Karachi called Lal Qila had decided to bring the delectable taste of Mughlai and traditional Pakistani food to South African shores! So without much ado or persuasion, I decided to find out if…
Continuing from Pat 1 – you can read it here. After restful stay in Luderitz (and a much needed break from camping), we were all set for probably one of the biggest attractions of Namibia – the Sossusvlei. Majestic dunes towering against the white of the dry salt pans, dead acacia trees withstanding the passage of…
After months of contemplation, K and I finally made it to Namibia with some friends this Easter. The plan was simple – drive your way through the country and mix it up with lots of camping and a few hotel stays! In my previous post, which you can read here, I outlined our very ambitious…
Namibia is a country in Southern Africa with ruggedly beautiful scenery, towering sand dunes, lonely desert roads, dusty and forgotten towns and a population so sparse that you could be driving for hours before setting sight on another human! The country is ideal for anyone looking for an unforgettable road trip. So this Easter break, K and…
After having successfully managed to secure a work permit in South Africa, I thought I would share my experience with all you hopefuls out there. It is possible so don’t give up just yet! But before you start, just be prepared – the process is LONG and FRUSTRATING. And be ready for disappointments too. Not all…
Just when I thought Park town North had reached a saturation point in terms of eateries, a spanking new one opens up….with rave reviews at that! So obviously I feel morally and gastronomically bound to stuff face and pretend I only do this for the love of my blog! The National Eatery opened its doors a few month ago…
I have been away from the blogosphere for far too long and believe me when I say this – I have missed blogging immensely. But the reason for my absence is a happy and exciting one. I have finally found full-time employment!! Having secured a work permit sometime last year – no mean feat to be…
It is always good to know your neighbours; especially the ones who give you great food recommendations! Last week, while casually chit chatting with an old neighbour, I came to know of a beautiful cafe located just 15 minutes in Lyndhurst As the name suggests – Under the Trees Garden Cafe – is located at the…
This week’s entry for ‘Weight(less)‘ is from last year’s trip to Muinch, Germany. Many surfers such as this one, enjoy surfing in a little river inside the English Garten!
It was my birthday recently and as per tradition, K took me out to dinner. He chose Flames, the swanky new casual dining restaurant at the recently opened Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff. This hotel, formerly the Westcliff, is built on a hill, offering sweeping views of the surrounding area. Cobbled lanes, quaint balconies, elite charm…
Everyone enjoys a tipple every now and then – but when it is on the first day of the year, at the highest pub in Africa….now that is an experience second to none! On a sudden whim, K decided that we must go on a trip for the New Year. Last minute hunt for accommodation, pet friendly…
