Roaming Rucksack 
Five important life lessons 2019 has reminded me of thus far…
They say the older you get, the faster time goes and as the years pass me by, I can relate to this more and more. This year started with a bang and looking back over the past three months, I cannot believe how much has already happened. I started this year with many goals and I can honestly say that I am happy with what I have achieved so far.
Eight important tips to consider before walking the Camino de Santiago
The Camino de Santiago, probably the most famous pilgrimage in the world, runs through Northern Spain with thousands of pilgrims taking on the journey every year. After completing the 800-kilometer trek on the Camino Frances, here are my tips and recommendations:

Featuring travel photography!
With an amazing trip coming up in a few weeks, I’ve decided to launch an Instagram account for my blog, as I am very excited about the beautiful scenery that this destination has to offer.

Seven Cape Town favourites
They say that summer in Cape Town is a lifestyle, not a season. I was once again reminded why I love it so much.
My first Couchsurfing experience
About a month ago I decided to update my Couchsurfing profile as I downloaded the App a few years ago without ever using it. As I am busy planning another adventure for 2019 I was hoping to use the application to share meaningful experiences with local people when I travel.
Tranquil Lake Oanob
Sometimes the best experiences are right at your doorstep. I’ve been meaning to visit Lake Oanob for some time now and finally got an opportunity this last month. Described as a place where body and soul is in harmony with nature, this is one of the very few places in Namibia with an abundance of water.
Paternoster and the Seashack
One of the oldest fishing villages on the West Coast of South Africa, is Paternoster. It is about 145km North of Cape Town and a must visit for any traveler. A few weeks ago I hopped onto a plane one Friday morning for a surprise visit to Cape Town as it was a good friend’s birthday. He had no idea that his brother and I would be coming down and he had no idea that his wife hijacked his birthday weekend plans with friends by organising a massive get together in Paternoster.
Career and Travel
Nearly five months after my solo journey I am craving adventure again. If I can take only one thing I have learnt from this year, it will be to stop postponing the things you really want to do. Looking back now, I am so grateful for the experiences and memories made during those two months and I am so excited for the next one.
