Exploring the other side of my Joburg border this week as My Saturday Find takes me to the small bushveld town of Hoedspruit. Just over 5 hours (450 km) from Joburg is a little piece of paradise where life carries on at its own pace. It’s a great space to take a few days […]
My Saturday Find, belated as it may be, takes me to an old favourite I discovered back in 2017 in Newtown, Joburg. Not sure about the My Saturday Find thinking, check out my first post in the series here. An avant-garde restaurant, located inside a craft beer brewery in the heart of old Joburg […]

That, and yesterday was Friday. But I digress. No fixed plans are in place for the weekend – which is literally your […]
