The best surfing spots in South Africa along the West Coast (so far)

-
Prent
We have been road tripping South Africa for the last 10 months now, mostly along the coast. While we were in KZN, our son went for surfing lessons and the feeling was so awesome, he kept bugging us to get to more surfing spots and surf again. We eventually listened to him and bought a surfboard while we stayed in Langebaan. So, here is a newbie's opinion of where to surf along the West coast, starting in Langebaan. 1. Langebaan We stayed in Langebaan for a whole month in November 2018. We surfed in front of Kokomo's restaurant, where the waves were small enough to handle... or completely non-existent. Langebaan is one of the best places to windsurf and kitesurf... but since we did neither of the two - it wasn't one of our best places to surf. If you are a newbie and wanting to surf, we would recommend going to Muizenberg for that. Langebaan 2. Jacob's Bay We spent a day or two at Jacob's Bay, where there are only a few people and houses, so it feels...

Week 50 - Eerste week in Mosselbaai

Ek kan nie glo hierdie is nou al die 50ste week wat ons op die pad is nie. Ek het gemengde gevoelens daaroor... daar is 'n deel van my wat baie graag nou wil huistoe gaan. Daai deel van my is die een wat planne uitvoer soos wat dit beplan was. Die deel van my wat hou daarvan om lysies af te merk soos ek takies verrig en wat goed voel oor myself wanneer ek dit doen. Ek verlang ook so bietjie na ons ruim huis en al ons goeters. Ek dink dit word in my wakker gemaak as ons mense ontmoet en by hulle in hulle huise gaan kuier. Dan onthou ek weer hoe lekker dit is om jou eie plekkie te hê waar jy jou skulpies wat jy opgetel het kan uitstal in 'n glas houer en waar jy jou prentjies en foto's teen die mure hang. Dit is egter nogsteeds baie lekker om so lang avontuur te hê. Dit is ook lekker om te sien hoe my mense blom. So tot verdere kennisgewing, sal ons maar nog aanhou met die avontuur! 'n mooi "pansy" skulp wat Pieter een oggend opgetel het Ons het maar Ma...

Social Media, Connecting and being disconnected

-
Prent
So we have been wondering about how we will be keeping in touch with everyone who cares and how we will be sharing our story during our travels. Blogging is a given - it is a little like keeping a diary... but I know that most people these days (myself included) are really too lazy busy to read blog posts. Blogs will be posted though, whether or not they will be read :-) because  I think it might just turn into a nice little keepsake for us afterwards. My 10 year old son is even keeping a blog on his experiences. He has already started during the school holidays last year  - check it out here . The next idea is to share a video-diary. Videos and images get the most views on social media and I personally also love looking at them. So we will post videos onto youtube and share on facebook and instagram . But it is not going not be about that: the big social media rush to get more likes, more follows, more interactions....  Our goal is not ACTUALLY to become t...
