Finally after 4 years we managed to take our trip we planned to Barcelona before Covid shut down the travel industry. Spain has been a destination that we have wanted to visit for a long time, and it did not disappoint!

Our destination? The magical Disneyland Paris – a place where every corner whispers stories of wonder, where fantasy knows no bounds and where the young and young at heart find solace in a world of imagination.

As avid Springbok supporters there were lots of excitement in our household, as this was the year that the Rugby World Cup would be held in France. A dream come true to watch South Africa play in the world cup.

The southern area of France has so much to offer, from beach towns all the way to wine & olive farms. We started our trip in Vias all the way to the charming and idyllic town of Sainte-Remy-de-Provence.

Kloofzicht Lodge is nestled at the foothills of the Zwartkops Mountains in the Cradle of Humankind. It is an easy 40min drive from Sandton and Pretoria (South Africa). Here we did a Hot Air Balloon ride and can highly recommend it!

Being raised in sunny South Africa, snow and skiing is not a typical family holiday experience for us. However, we love to ski and have always wanted to share this with Amber.

During this trip we went to Milan as well as Lake Como. What a wonderful experience to see the Duomo di Milano in Milan. In Como, we rented a boat and went to the various small towns next to the water.

A few years back we were pushed out of our comfort zone like we never thought were possible. Traveling was still very new territory, so when we decided to visit my brother who was living in South Korea we also did a 24h layover in Hong Kong.

Ireland has always been this idyllic place that we wanted to visit, maybe it is because of the national anthem that they sing during a rugby match, or perhaps we think that the luck of the Irish (or leprechaun) truly exist.
