Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
It is so easy to take miraculous things for granted. We often live our lives in a predictable pattern, wake at the same time, eat the same things, watch the same TV shows, shop in the same places, relate to people the same ways and go to bed at the same time. I try so …
Even though we live by the sea, we are surrounded by mountains and we do not get an actual 'sundown' with a sun slipping into the ocean on the horizon like you see in romantic films. But on Sunday night when I was sitting on the back patio I looked up at the sky behind …
Time flies by so quickly, I also find that the older one gets, the more it seems to accelerate. I was ill with my stomach for 3 weeks so avoided everyone in case of germ transfer, then Caitlin was having a visit with her dad and brother for a week, and the next thing you …
Every single thing seems to create a debate or an argument these days, including something as innocuous as Mother's Day. Women were complaining that no one recognises them on the day, some were complaining that it is wrong that it is only one day where mom's get treated nicely, some were sad because their mom …

In the last week I have certainly touched on all steps of the Circle of Life. Last Sunday we had Chelsea and her husband Sheldon and their new baby Daniel over for lunch. Chelsea was one of Lily's bridesmaids but they have not lived in the same area for a few years and this was …

Human Rights Day in South Africa is historically linked with March 21st, 1960 and the events of Sharpeville. The apartheid regime forced black people to carry a 'Pass', a hated identification document, known …
This month marks an entire year since we have been locked down. A year since we have had people around, a year since we have had a social life, a year since I had a hair cut, a year since I coloured my hair, a year since we have seen my Mother, a year of …
The last week has been rather horrific for the residents of our village. It feels like we are under some sort of siege, there have been back to back fires and other tragedies and chaos. The drought has continued with a brief respite on Wednesday, however it was just literally a drop in the dry dams and our ground …
