What is your favourite travel childhood memory?
I was probably 14. My mother took myself, sister and late cousin to Bela Bela. We drove from the Eastrand. Everything about it touches my heart to date. We had a blast as a family. My mother let me drive her car back from the Bela Bela. Without a licence nor learners so that was cool.

I honestly do not travel much but for the places I been to, Cape Town takes the spot. The place is beautiful and clean.
