Stuurmansfontein: A Corbelled House in the Great Karoo - 2Summers The Blogitects spent two days at Stuurmansfontein, a historica corbelled house -- kind of like a stone igloo -- in the Karoo

Struggling to find my people here (where are you, South Africans and travel folk?!) but I will persist for a bit. Here's a blog post from my favorite SA road trip of 2024, into the wilds of the Great Karoo: 2summers.net/2024/07/30/s... #southafrica #travel #karoo

My Joburg Jumpsuit: A Love Story - 2Summers I had the perfect jumpsuit and some other items made as part of a Caraci Clothing experience with Sebo Marobela, and I am in love.

I only joined here today, but so far I haven't found much South African cultural/travel content. If you have suggestions, please shout! In the meantime I thought I'd share some of my own SA travel content. This is my personal favorite Joburg travel experience: 2summers.net/2024/03/12/m...
