{All images belong to me, please ask before taking}
I came up with the idea to show you bits and pieces of my country in a blog post, using photos. (or, at least, the part of Africa that I live in)
I thought about doing this long ago, so, in my mind, it is far overdue.

Some of my followers actually live in South Africa as well, but a lot of them don't. And this post was inspired by questions frequently asked by my oversea blogger friends, questions about South Africa.
Sometimes I feel I take my country for granted, and I really shouldn't. You'll agree with me after the photos... (some of them were taken with my iPhone, so when you see a blurry or noisy image, please excuse it with my apologies)
Here goes.


a brilliant sunset was shining, and at the same time it was pouring. // the clouds...they like to play.


a late evening warm sunset breaking through the trees // every spring, these beautiful little faces are plentiful in our garden.


rainbow leaves. (I did not modify their color at all when I was editing the photo) // another sunset. (even more are coming)


a sunny day. // a Pincushion Protea.


yes, again with the daisies. // we have quite an incredible view from our veranda.


candyfloss clouds, don't you think? // our moon rises are pretty breathtaking.


sunset on the beach. (told you more were coming) // stormy clouds on a gloomy day.




double rainbow. // the Helderberg mountain.


sunrise. // palm tree silhouettes.


more palm trees.


ice cream on the beach. // when the city lights come out.


the moon, high in the sky. // big, fluffy clouds.


daydream days.

These photos are beautiful, I love them! You live in such an awesome place :)

My best friend's parents lived in South Africa before moving to California; they have the cutest accents!
Do you have an accent? -Sorry if I've already asked this or if it's a dumb queation, I was just too curious!
