South Africa

South Africa is a dream destination that has something to offer everyone. It could easily be referred to as almost the whole world in one country as it's one of the most exciting, diverse destinations in the world.

So whether you're an adventure junkie, a nature lover, a beach bum, a city slicker, a mountain hiker, a foodie or a wildlife addict, South Africa is the place to be.

It's obvious that we both love South Africa. We've travelled the country extensively, one of us being born and raised here. We've discovered the countless small towns and settlements along with all the major and smaller national parks and nature reserves and we can humbly say there're not that many places we've not visited in South Africa.

We mostly love the outdoors and camping while we continue to look for new places to discover, but, we also make a point of re-discovering things already seen. It never actually gets old. Sometimes we miss things the first time around.

However, we also love to spoil ourselves with of some of the many glamping and luxury hotel wellness options. So don't worry, not everyone in South Africa lives in the dusty bush.

With the posts in this section we try to cover all that South Africa has to offer, on and off the beaten track. From the best eSIM to the best place to buy hand made souvenirs.
