My weekend away {Rivierbosch}

I always look so forward to actually getting out of Cape Town for the weekend. As much as I love the dinner parties and drinks that ensue come Friday 5pm, it is such a nice change to escape them once in a while.

I spent this past weekend at a quaint cottage in Stellenbosch called Rivierbosch. It was one of the most incredible weekends – the cottage was cosy, beautiful and everything I had hoped for, and more. We spent the weekend going on walks, reading, lazing in the sun and drinking hot chocolate and G&T’s.

    Yes, so much. There are beautiful walks, loads of friendly animals, a stream – I saw a few kids around and they were in their element
