I recently went to the Northcliff branch of Makotis, an iconic Joburg fabric shop. It's a great option for those who don't feel like trekking to town.

I spent an evening walking through Soweto for Soweto Night Out, a new tourism initiative founded by Sowetan Nomsa Mazwai.

St. Mary's Cathedral in downtown Joburg is one of the city's most important historic landmarks. I had never heard of it until last week.

Thorsten and I spent half a day at the Cradle of Humankind to experience Howard Geach's Human Origins Tour.

I had the perfect jumpsuit and some other items made as part of a Caraci Clothing experience with Sebo Marobela, and I am in love.

Thorsten and I visited Dolobran, one of Joburg's quirkiest Parktown mansions, on a tour by the Johannesburg Heritage Foundation.

I spent an afternoon photographing the Pretoria jacarandas with Johannesburg in Your Pocket and the Joburg Photowalkers.

I took a walk through downtown Jozi on a tour with JoburgPlaces. Despite all the bad press, the city is still alive and kicking.

In celebration of Heritage Month, I went on a tour of churches in Coronationville and Bosmont with the Joburg Heritage Foundation.

With the help of Caraci Experiences, I got to be a Jozi fashion designer for a day and (help) design my very own wax print bomber jacket.

Over Human Rights Day weekend I discovered St. Alban's Anglican Mission Church, a 100-year-old church hidden in plain sight in Ferreirasdorp.

Our jacaranda weekend in Rosebank included a group walk through Rosebank and Parkwood and a stay at the Tyrwhitt's luxury penthouse.
