Cape Town remains one of my favourite cities in the world. A place where the carefree notion of coastal living and the determined drive of a bustling capital work hand in hand. The city has a dynamic vibe, full of creatives and some of the best restaurants in the world.

The only problem I find with Cape Town is that there’s so much to see and do, people often really don’t give the place enough time and leave wishing they’d stayed longer. Trust me, you’ll go to Cape Town once and will immediately start planning a return trip even before you’ve left.
