Hi lovelies :) We’re in a bit of a hurry, we’re headed to Cape Town where we’ll stay at a hotel at the beach for three days. Joining us is Tonje’s friend from the US, Brianne, I’m really excited to meet her :) Here’s pictures from the wine tasting at the vineyard Lanzerac yesterday. We tasted eight different wines, all made at the vineyard. The first time I’ve actually enjoyed red wine! So good.

Earlier yesterday we visited the vineyard with the car, but when we decided to do the wine tasting we drove home, and took the bikes in stead. No drinking and driving, only drinking and bicycling! Pretty challenging, but we made it home without any injuries, yay!

So pretty!!

Cheese, crackers and meat is soo good with wine..

We bought two bottles each, one red and one white. So high quality wine, to only like 60kr/$10 a bottle!

 

Two tipsy girls riding their bikes home, it must have been quite a sight, haha.

Cape Town next! Have a good one<3

Hi sweets :) We’ve had such an amazing day. I feel like I’ve seen so much, but Tonje tells me I really haven’t at all. We started the day at a food market, ate so much donut and cinnamon bun that we went into total sugar shock, drove around town to sightsee, then we headed to the wine tasting. Such a cool experience! I’ll share pictures from that tomorrow, but here’s so pictures from the rest of the day :)

We’re so far down south that the weather is pretty similar to Norway, so coats and scarfs are necessary. When the sun shines it gets really hot though, so fingers crossed for some sunshine the rest of the week :)

Finally got to wear my new Acne scarf, love it!

Tonje hasn’t driven their car down here yet, which is pretty scary as they drive on the left side of the road. She gave it a go today, and it went pretty well, phiew!

Avocado heaven! Love me some avocados<3

Pretty colors..

The best piece of food I’ve ever eaten!!

Combined with the donuts it became a little too much though..

A huge candy store, love!!

I found this bag in really solid leather that I couldn’t decide if I should get it or not.. What do you guys think? Perfect for my computer.

Driving around town can’t really be described with words.. Most white people here live in huge villas, with tall fences and a guard dog or two. A few minutes away, millions of black people live in crowded shelters without electricity, hot water, they don’t really have anything. I’ve only seen it from the outside so far, but on Wednesday we’re going on a guided tour in one of the townships, where one of the men who actually lives there takes us around and tells us about what it’s like to live there. Should be very interesting, and probably heartbreaking.. Here’s just one example of the villas the white people live in..

Sooo many cars for each house! The contrasts are enormous.

Now we’re headed out to dinner, and we’re actually gonna eat ostrich! I’m pretty nervous, but we’ve been told we just have to try it, so we’re going a little out of our comfort zone today. Oh and by the way, internet here is crazy expensive, so I prioritize blogging for you guys, but I don’t really have time to answer your comments. If you want, I can just do a Q&A when I come home if you have questions about the trip or anything else :) Have a fab evening <3

Hellooo from South Africa! The trip down here went great, it was sooo good to see Tonje again! The drive from the airport was pretty interesting, we drove along townships where millions of people live in extreme poverty. Pretty crazy to see it up close. Tonje and her roomies’ house is gorgeous and huge though, and they have their own guard outside the house. They live in Stellenbosch, about an hour from Cape Town. We had a cosy evening with cheese, crackers and a bottle of red, and the girls went bananas when they saw all the Norwegian candy I brought them. Here is Tonje and her sweet roomies Malene and Vilde :)

I want a kitchen like this!!

Now we’re gonna go explore the neighborhood, and later we’re hopefully going wine tasting. Super ready for this week, it will be a week I’m never going to forget, I’m sure. Have a great day dolls<3
