My new plant obsession is accompanied by a pot obsession. Leibermann Pottery sells fantastic pots as well as funky antique tiles.

We climbed Table Mountain, starting from the Kirstenbosch and up the Skeleton Gorge Trail. Here's how we did it.

Thorsten and I recently stumbled upon King Arabic Sandwich -- a Palestinian restaurant that used to be in Mayfair -- in Roodepoort.

Thorten and I went hiking in Kloodendal Nature Reserve. It was my first time there in 11 years, and we saw hundreds of king proteas in bloom.

JFF Rooftop Farm is a nursery/coffee shop in Braamfontein. The nursery is on the building's roof, surrounded by skyscrapers and treetops.

The second annual Brixton Light Festival happened on Sunday evening. It was the coolest community event I've attended in years.

I was invited to spend 3 days at Thanda Safari, a five-star game lodge in Zululand. It was one of the most spectacular holidays of my life.

Chappy Vintage, a charming second-hand shop on 4th Avenue in Linden, is my new favorite place for quirky home furnishings.

Westdene, like neighboring Brixton, is a super cool Joburg neighborhood with very few restaurants. So I was excited to hear about Emzini'.

Ludwig's Roses, a massive rose farm just north of Pretoria, is a delightful place to spend an afternoon sniffing flowers.

Klipriversberg Nature Reserve is more than your average Joburg City Park. It's a full-on hiking/nature-walking experience.

Jon died ten years ago tomorrow. Every time I think my grieving process is ending, it comes back in a slightly different form.
