Here are 10 not-to-be-missed experiences during your visit to the Wild Coast

The Wild Coast is a backpackers paradise thanks to the laid-back lifestyle, peacefulness and spectacularly beautiful landscapes.

Whether you are camping or backpacking, there are many different ways to make coffee. Here's my favourite method and setup.

The beautiful farm stay known as the Boshuis, nestled in an indigenous forest at the foot of the Outeniqua Mountains.

It's not a trip to the Garden Route without stopping off at all the great markets along the way.

During the last two months of road life, all I wanted to do was be back. Then I got back. And coming home proved to be the loneliest part.

There are very few brands that I've walked such a long path with, as I have with The Cotton Company.

The beginning of the end of this “year on the road”. So, what’s the plan for the last stretch?

Someone asked me if it gets boring telling the story again and again.

Eco Karoo Lodge is situated on 4200 hectares of pure Karoo bliss, on a farm called Knoffelfontein just outside the little town of Luckhoff.

On giving in to the road’s promise.

These days, most people still visit solely for the (in-) famous Owl House, but I came to find there's a whole lot more to do in this town.

Everything there is to do, to see and to eat in Graaff-Reinet, Eastern Cape.

Mount Camdeboo is playing a pivotal role for conservation in the region by creating a sanctuary for endangered species.
