SLOW LIVING | Talking about embracing the beauty o SLOW LIVING | Talking about embracing the beauty of slow, with the Karoo as tangible inspiration. Thank you, @ms360_ondersteunersklub for the opportunity to share my passion for slow living with your supporters at the @karoo_winter_wool_festival . #slowliving #karoowinterwoolfestival #karoowinter #motivationalspeaker
WOOL WORLD | I am still processing our incredible WOOL WORLD | I am still processing our incredible experience at the Wool Festival - part of it being the Wool World, curated by @viviers.studio and @hovendesign . The initiative and passion that went into this festival and also this art installation is mind-blowing and makes you want to help tell the story of wool. Soon, I will share more about the experience, but for now, my family and I are enjoying some well-deserved rest on the Garden Route. (There will therefore also not be a podcast tomorrow). Do keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming podcast episodes, though, as they will be epic! #wool #southafrica #karoowinterwoolfestival

KAROO STAYS | During the @karoo_winter_wool_festiv KAROO STAYS | During the @karoo_winter_wool_festival we got to stay at @dwarsvlei_guest_farm - an authentic step back in time. The main house is one of the oldest farm houses in the region, with vintage wooden floors, high ceilings and romantic fireplaces. It felt like coming home, even though we'd never been. If you ever need a place to stay when driving down to the Garden Route, Dwarsvlei gives you a glimpse of Karoo farming, stunning Karoo vistas and typical Karoo hospitality. #dwarsvlei #karoostays #southafrica #travel #travelwriter #travelblogger
