I’m new to Cape Town (not really but bear with me)
In Le Blogue #2, I wrote about my friend who was moving overseas. Nervous about not knowing anyone, he researched some spaces that would accommodate his interests, allow him to meet like-minded people, and settle in. I realised I would do the same if I moved somewhere new.
Then I realised (yes, two realisations in one day) that I can use the same mindset without actually moving overseas. I loved the idea, so I started planning my next big
adventure: Newlands to Newlands.
A few days after Le Blogue #2 went out, a reader, Zahn, suggested we do a “Moving to Cape Town” segment in every Le Blogue.
It was a great suggestion. So great, in fact, that this entire episode of Le Blogue is dedicated to the suggestion.
A lot of people are experiencing the desire to live slightly different lives at the moment. In order to live a different life, you actually need to live a different life. We’ll lead by example.
^ We’ve linked the e-Blogue instead of posting every article online. It allows you to bask in the writing and layout all at once.
Shoutout. Enjoy!
