“Whoa, what even is this place?” asks my awestruck daughter as we walk past the hulking industrial remains of a grain silo on Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront. “Are we sleeping in a factory?” The short answer is yes.

“Shark!” yells my ever-dramatic daughter as she dips her toes into the warm waters off Fiji’s Tivua Island. I leave our stuff up at one of the beachside bures and run down to the water. Sure enough, a black fin emerges, just metres away from my daughter’s tiny toes. “It’s adorable,” she declares, leaping straight […] Read more…

Raff road tests authentic, restaurant quality pizza at home from RDM Pizza Australia. I don’t think I’ve ever had an even half decent pre-prepared pizza base and to be honest, I thought it would be a miracle if I ever did. I mean even the best of them are soggy and most of them taste […] Read more…
