Roaming Rucksack 
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.

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.
Solo in Ibiza

Five Florence musts!
Florence, or Firenze as the Italians call it, is the capital of Tuscany and probably one of the most magical cities in Italy. I spent three days here while traveling on my own through Italy and these are my five best experiences in Florence.
Perfect Porto
After finishing my Camino I was left with a week where I did not have anything planned as I did not expect to finish my pilgrimage in 27 days. My initial idea was to just explore Santiago de Compostela, however I quickly realised that Santiago is not a place where you spend an entire week. […]
Exploring Cinque Terre
If you find yourself in Italy wondering where to go next, the Cinque Terre area is definitely a must. I am lucky enough to have a close friend in Lerici and when I initially planned to visit her I had no idea that this area is one of the most famous places in Italy. It […]
