I get this in my mailbox earlier… Really cracked me up. I got some amazing friends in my life. Thanks for the smile Sa 😀

I generally walk every morning at sunrise and get to enjoy some quiet time at one of the most beautiful times of the day in a beautiful setting. It’s food for the soul and keeps me grounded. If I’m feeling sprightly I’ll do a few yoga poses before taking some time to sit on the rocks and have some quiet time. Last night Benj asked if I wanted to join him and Jean on the beach for some exercise. Cool I said.  And what a great morning. We had a…

Had a great weekend break catching up with my friends Dru and Rob this weekend. Been ages since I’d spent a weekend with them and it was long overdue. Went down on Friday evening and we had a quiet one that evening as Dru and Rob themselves having only having gotten home a little earlier from a week away up in the Natal Midlands. Sat Dru and I ran some errands in town then decided to try out a new deli Dru had heard about. Highly recommend if you in…

Yesterday I wanted to make something a bit different for supper and I was lucky enough to get the tides right to be able to pick some fresh mussels.

I’d steam them in white wine, garlic and shallots and serve with crusty brown bread and butter. Beautiful! But I was a bit bored of that so I asked my old mate Ross what…

More once I know. Some preliminary dates for Cape Town at the end of the year. 27th November through to the 10th December. Not set in stone but this seems the most likely for now. Really looking forward to seeing  you folks again.  More in…

Man am I chuffed about this. My latest client and most high profile one yet 🙂 Very happy to have landed this, it will mean great exposure for me! So I’ll be doing a re-development of Maria’s existing site to help her promote herself, basically an online CV with video showreel etc. Similar in terms of what there is now, just better 🙂 Here is the old site if you want to see more:  www.mariaramos.com

Every year I create a playlist, a “mixed tape” if you will, of my favourite tracks. I give this to friends as gifts and the like. Just sharing the love and all. I’ve done it for a few years now but it’s been a bit hard (read I’ve not taken the time to do it…) to share this easily with you if I’m not going to physically see you. Enter Youtube. I think this is a pretty good option for now. You can listen to most of the tracks as…
