A Case for a Winter High Five
Let’s be honest, winter can leave us feeling – a little under the weather. The icy temperatures, the short days and long nights, and layers of clothing, leave us feeling like a deflated Michelin Man. Luckily, there are things we can do to beat the winter blues – also known as SAD (seasonal affective disorder).
We think a great pick-me-up is to pack up and escape to a destination that takes you out of your winter routine. Whether it be a warmer, sunnier spot – than the one you’re in – or a cosy log cabin up in the mountains – you can be sure, the change will be as good as… well, a holiday.
Celebrating our Heritage in Mandela Month
“South Africa is the most beautiful place on earth. Admittedly, I am biased but when you combine the natural beauty... and the fact that the region is a haven for Africa's most splendid wildlife... Then I think that we have been blessed with a truly wonderful land.” -
In the month of July, South Africans and citizens of the world celebrate the life and legacy of Nelson Mandela’s birthday. From Aberdeen, in the Eastern Cape to Zeerust, in the North West, South Africans will be dedicating 67 minutes of their time - one for every year of Mandela's service – making a difference.
A Case for Shopping
"Whoever said that money can't buy happiness simply didn't know where to go shopping." This fabulous quote has been attributed to two flamboyant American women - playwright and poet, Gertrude Stein and the perfect 10 actress and model, Bo Derek.
No doubt, they’re not the only ones who have felt that whoosh of adrenaline while shopping.
Travel Tips to Help you Unwind
Many of us feel totally exhausted by the non-stop demands of our “always-on” existence. We long to flee from the endless emails, texts, and social media obligations of our work and sometimes our social lives too.
Yet even when we reach our destination paradise, our minds remain stuck in the world of work thinking about what we “should have done” before leaving for our much-needed break and what we’ll “have to do” when we get back. We remain in “always-on” mode and it’s jolly difficult to tell your brains to switch off.
We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us - Unknown
Whether you want to party your way to Papua New Guinea, spend a week relaxing with the family in the Med or spot marine mammals from the deck of your luxury liner, the good life awaits when you choose to cruise.
A Case for “I Do”
Whether you want to scream, say or whisper, ‘I do” – we all need a companion that truly gets us on our journey through life. From the get-go, we should have a good idea of what type of alliance we’re entering into. It then becomes a whole lot easier to plan that long-haul trip.
