A picture of a thosand words

 

Hi all, hope you had a great weekend. Some of my fondest memories is from living in California and meeting some amazing people.

 

These pictures hold so many memories of a night well spend. Driving over the Golden Gate Bridge in a limo, having a great dinner in San Francisco and spending it with good company. It was like a farewell before we returning to our home countries, namely South Africa, Germany, Sweden and Brazil. 

 

This picture was taken in the Golden Gate Park with The Palace of the Fine Arts behind us. FYI, my dress only cost $6. Have a great week.

Happy Spring

Spring is finally here, yet it's still a bit cold in Cape Town. I've decided to do a little spring cleaning to make space for the new stuff I bought, I will share soon. 

 Spring to me is all about new beginnings, new life, looking outside and hearing birds chirping, stopping to smell the flowers, looking forward to new opportunities to come and celebrating yourself in a way.

It's like winter all over again in Cape Town, it's been rainy and cold today. I can't wait for summer to come, I'm especially excited for all the summer fashion. Today I'm so inspired by all the bright colours to brighten up this gloomy weather.  

Have a great rest of the week!!!

Dinner at Moyo

 It was my birthday in the week as well as my parent's wedding anniversary, so on Saturday we went to Moyo for dinner. It is situated in Stellenbosch also known as the Cape winelands, I was once again reminded how fortunate I am to live in beautiful Cape Town. The setting is just amazing, with different areas where one can enjoy a wonderful meal. The decor is African inspired and I was swept away by everything that surrounded me. From live marimba bands and live acts to getting your face painted to feel apart of the African culture. The meal was buffet style and ranged from seafood to all different kinds of meats and also wonderful salads and vegetables for those vegetarians.

I had a wonderful time just relaxing with my family and just taking in what the place has to offer. One can also take a nice walk around the premises and just enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. The dress code is a very casual and I recommend not wearing heels. I definitely want to go back. 

This also inspired me to do more features on what Cape Town has to offer and all the unique things that surrounds me in my city. For those of you who also don't know Table Mountain was name one  of the New seven Wonders of the world, which makes me more proud to live in this wonderful and diverse city.

Halloween Memories

So I'm a day late but I had to share this picture. Last year I celebrated Halloween in California with some wonderful friends I made there. I really  missed all the fun this year seeing that we don't celebrate Halloween in South Africa. My costume was kind of a DIY situation that involved sewing some thing on the last minute. So happy Belated Halloween to my California girls, I miss you guys!!!!

BON VOYAGE!!!

Today is my last day in California in a few hours I will be boarding a flight to New York and then finally South Africa, I only arrive in South Africa on Friday. So it will be a long trip...

 These are pictures are from my good bye dinner on Sunday. THANK YOU to everybody who made my experience in the USA unforgettable, lots of great trips together and so many fond memories. I have so many reasons to travel soon and visit all the amazing friends I made . See you guys back in South Africa.

Till we meet again, San Francisco.

This weekend was was my last weekend in the USA, so in a few days I will be back in South Africa. Even though I'm super excited to go home I felt really sad when I spend the day in San Francisco, because I don't  know when I will return here and I really love the city. It was raining a little bit but I still enjoyed it for old time sake. I spend some time at Pier 39, the had a Sushi lunch with a friend in Chinatown. And of course some shopping too.

Bye Bye Sandra

As I mention before Saturday night Sandra invited a few of us to her farewell dinner, she will be going back to Sweden in a few days. We had a nice dinner outside, the food was delicious and and the company even better. It's sad to have to say good bye to these amazing people that was apart of my life for the year, but now I have reason to travel more and visit them.

The scarf I'm wearing was a lovely gift from Sandra, which I love. It was so cold outside that it came in pretty handy.
