Update Clubhouse

Dear Heritage Hill Residents,

We are pleased to offer you an update on the clubhouse development project, highlighting the impressive advancements made thus far. The Clubhouse is making good progress and the Contractor has just started on the swimming pool and tennis court, which will still take a few weeks to complete, weather permitting. Whilst the progress is consistent and steady, there have been a few unforeseen delays including the City of Tshwane and this is affecting the completion date, which is now expected to be early December 2023. The official opening is earmarked for the middle of January, date to be confirmed.

We apologise for the inconvenience.

Kind regards

INSTANT gardens

Article by Elize Malan

Nurseries often host show gardens during spring, designed and completed in a short space of time. New hybrids and trends are showcased in this way. The plants are beautifully displayed: All healthy, flowering and of optimal size.

Home gardeners return home with a head full of ideas for a new garden or quick renovation. The one thing everyone require is an instant result.

Gardeners without sufficient plant knowledge and little design skill will need professional help. Garden centres offer advice, but their first priority is selling their products.

Seasoned gardeners can do their own research and planning, before starting a project. Satisfactory instant results can be achieved by most gardeners on a limit budget, but keep the following in mind:

Plant size:

Planting large trees are expensive. A pergola covered with a fast-growing climber could be the instant solution for shade, privacy or height.

The majority of groundcovers are fast-growing and ideal for quick results. They will reach their potential size within one season. Buy small plants in trays. Good soil preparation before planting and they will spread quickly to cover the required area.

There are shrubs as well as a wide variety of herbaceous plants that will mature within one season.

Plant species that take more time to make an impact, in-between the fast growers. A container with one really special shrub can be a focal point.

By the second or third season the herbaceous plants are removed and the fast-growing shrubs severely pruned where needed.

Repetition:

The smaller the garden, the less species should be planted. Repetition of the same plants will produce a harmonious garden with rhythm, one which looks planned and is pleasing to the eye.

Pots, architectural lines or a feature of the house can be repeated with the same effect.

Colour repetition will prevent the fruit salad visual effect, the result of coming home from a nursery with another impulse buy. Designing a garden with white containers, shrubs with grey leaves and a variety of plants with white flowers will have a calming effect during daytime and very attractive appearance at night.

Colour:

Remember to allow space for growth and do not plant shrubs too close together. Fill these gaps with colour plants.

During the first season you have to plant an abundance of flowering annuals. Seedlings can be planted or seed sown in all beds.

By the second season some of the gaps will be filled by shrubs and perennials. The variety of annuals is endless. Decide on the colour palette for your garden, like you would for the interior of your house.

Shrubs or groundcovers with white variegated leaves will go well with blue, purple and green.

Yellow variegated leaves can be combined with warm colours such as yellow orange and red.

Painting a garden wall or containers according to your choice will complete the picture.

Smart Snacking:

How to nourish your body and mind with healthy choices...

In a world filled with tempting but often unhealthy snack options, mastering the art of smart snacking is a valuable skill that can benefit both your physical wellbeing and mental clarity. Smart snacking isn’t just about choosing the right foods; it’s also about understanding when and how to snack to support your energy levels throughout the day. In this article, we’ll explore the principles of smart snacking and provide you with practical tips to make better choices when it comes to satisfying your cravings.

1. Balance is Key

When it comes to smart snacking, balance is the name of the game. A balanced snack combines protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. This combination provides sustained energy and helps keep your blood sugar levels stable, preventing the dreaded energy crash that often follows sugary or highly processed snacks.

Consider options like Greek yogurt with fresh berries and a sprinkle of almonds, wholegrain crackers with hummus, or a piece of fruit with a small handful of nuts. These snacks provide a well-rounded mix of nutrients to keep you feeling satisfied.

2. Portion Control

Snacking can easily turn into mindless munching if you’re not careful with portion sizes. Pay attention to serving sizes and try to avoid eating directly from a large bag or container. Instead, portion out your snacks into small bowls or containers to prevent overindulgence.

3. Mindful Eating

Smart snacking also involves mindful eating. Take the time to savour and enjoy each bite of your snack. Eating mindfully helps you appreciate the flavours and textures, making your snack more satisfying. It also allows your brain to register that you’re eating, reducing the likelihood of overeating.

4. Hydration Matters

Sometimes, what you perceive as hunger is actually thirst. Before reaching for a snack, have a glass of water and wait a few minutes. You might find that your cravings diminish once you’re properly hydrated.

5. Plan Ahead

Planning your snacks in advance can help you make better choices. Stock your pantry and fridge with healthy options like pre-cut veggies, yogurt, or whole-grain crackers. When you’re prepared, you’re less likely to resort to less nutritious options out of convenience.

6. Healthy Snacking on the Go

For busy individuals, smart snacking on the go is a must. Keep portable options like trail mix, fruit, or low-sugar protein bars in your bag or car. Having healthy snacks readily available can prevent you from succumbing to vending machine temptations or fast food options when hunger strikes unexpectedly.

7. Listen to Your Body

Finally, the most important aspect of smart snacking is listening to your body. Pay attention to your hunger and fullness cues. Snack when you’re genuinely hungry, not out of boredom or stress. Remember that it’s okay to indulge occasionally, but aim to make healthy choices the majority of the time.

Smart snacking isn’t about depriving yourself of tasty treats but rather making thoughtful choices that nourish your body and mind. By following these principles of balance, portion control, mindful eating, and planning, you can enjoy delicious snacks that support your overall well-being. Start making smart snacking a habit, and you’ll reap the rewards of increased energy, improved concentration, and better health. Your body and mind will thank you for it.

7 Steps to Finding Flow: Navigating Stress in Our Fast-Paced Lives

In today’s fast-paced world, the daily hustle and bustle can often leave us feeling overwhelmed and stressed. The relentless demands of work, family, and social obligations can make it seem like finding peace is an elusive dream. However, we can explore seven valuable steps to help you reduce stress and find your own path to tranquility.

1. Mindful Breathing

The first step on your journey to finding flow is to practice mindful breathing. Taking a few moments each day to focus on your breath can help you regain control over your thoughts and emotions. Deep, intentional breaths can slow your heart rate, reduce tension, and promote mental clarity. Whether through

meditation or simply taking a few deep breaths during a hectic day, this practice can make a significant difference in your stress levels.

2. Time Management and Prioritization

Our fast-paced lives often leave us feeling pulled in multiple directions. To regain a sense of balance, it’s crucial to manage your time effectively and prioritize tasks. Setting clear goals, breaking them into manageable steps, and allocating your time wisely can reduce the feeling of being constantly rushed and overwhelmed.

3. Embrace Simplicity

In a world filled with constant distractions, simplifying your life can be a powerful antidote

to stress. Examine your daily routines and identify areas where you can simplify. This might involve decluttering your physical space, streamlining your commitments, or reducing digital noise. Embracing simplicity can create more room for peace and stillness.

4. Connect with Nature

Amid the urban chaos, reconnecting with nature can be a source of solace. Spend time outdoors, even if it’s just a short walk in the park. Nature has a calming effect on the mind and can help you gain perspective on life’s challenges. Incorporating natural elements into your daily routine, such as houseplants or soothing nature sounds, can also have a positive impact on your stress levels.

5. Cultivate Gratitude

Practicing gratitude is a powerful way to shift your focus away from stressors and towards positive aspects of your life. Each day, take a moment to reflect on what you’re thankful for. Whether it’s your health, loved ones, or even small joys like a warm cup of tea, acknowledging your blessings can foster a sense of contentment.

6. Self-Care and Wellness

Nurturing your physical and emotional wellbeing is essential in combating stress. Make self-care a priority by getting enough sleep, maintaining a balanced diet, and engaging in regular

exercise. Additionally, consider practices like mindfulness meditation or yoga to help you stay centered and resilient in the face of life’s challenges.

7. Foster Connection

Despite the fast-paced nature of modern life, genuine human connection remains a fundamental source of support and joy. Cultivate meaningful relationships with friends and family, and seek opportunities to connect with likeminded individuals who share your values and interests. These connections can provide a sense of belonging and a strong support network to help you navigate stress.

In the midst of life’s relentless pace, finding flow and reducing stress is not only possible but essential for our wellbeing. By following these seven steps, you can regain a sense of balance and inner peace in a world that often feels like a neverending race. Remember that the journey toward a less stressful life is a personal one, and each step you take brings you closer to a more tranquil and fulfilling existence.

Village Market in the

Market in the Village started in 2011 to try to put Heritage Hill on the map since the estate was slow out of the starting blocks in terms of being an identified estate.

With Heritage Hill’s expansion, Market in the Village moved to Trinityhouse Heritage Hill in 2016 but never started again after COVID.

We have received many requests since then to host a night market again. We have tested the interest for a Winter Market in the Village. We were overwhelmed with the reaction.

On Friday afternoon and evening of 25 August, we had our first Market in the Village after 7½ years. It was not open to the public as before. Space was our biggest challenge, and the possibility of load-shedding or a power outage was a reality. We had immense favour.

Thank you to each exhibitor who participated,

every visitor on the day, and every resident who completed the post-event survey form. We will look at improvement if the Market continues next year.

Business Hub Social event

21 local businesses showcased their products on Friday afternoon, 11 August, in our Rose Garden. The only criteria were you had to be a Heritage Hill resident to be able to take part.

Our residents had the opportunity to get a free cappuccino, sponsored by Phone Factory, Lavish Beauty Boutique and Just Enjoy Coffee, before they strolled through the Rose Garden to get a better idea of what type of businesses there are inside as well as outside the estate, run by our own residents.

There were wonderful prizes up for grabs, sponsored by the 21 local businesses.

Phone Factory, Lavish Beauty Boutique, Just Enjoy Coffee, Bono Foods, Eqfin, Indigo Tranquility, Iszi Online, HL Performance Consulting, Just Enjoy Coffee, Just Fit, Keller Williams Realty, Kopper Branding, Kuberruim; Nooks & Crannies , Pilates Co, Remax Infoglobe Team Alpha, Steve’s Auto Clinic Centurion, Shirley’s bakhuis, Vinyl Architects, WC Woodwork Creations and Xpand

Our 3 winners were Frikkie Rautenbach, Ingrid le Roux and Milan Dajee.

Heritage Hill Annual Gin Festival

After a long, cold winter, we are over the moon that spring has arrived, and at Heritage Hill we welcome spring in style, with our Annual Gin Festival.

Not too long ago gin was not the most exciting drink available, maybe something our grandparents might drink or James Bond would enjoy in a Martini… shaken, not stirred. But judging by the creativity of the local distillers on display at our gin festival, and the energy amongst residents, gin has certainly come a long way from the plain and unexciting drink it used to be.

Originating in the 16th century, gin was first distilled, by monks and alchemists across Europe, from Juniper berries to create a medicinal liquor consumed for medical purposes. Then modified in Flanders and the Netherlands, gin soon became an object of commerce in the liquor industry eventually being popularised to a market outside of the traditional gin drinkers.

In South Africa, what began as a handful of Western-Cape based small-batch distillers soon developed into a highly competitive market with more than 50 licenced gin distillers country wide. With much care for the quality of their product, craft distillers go through two to three rounds of distillation, producing lower quantities in the end, but of the highest quality and significantly more pure.

On display and for tasting at this year’s Heritage Hill Gin Festival were BushCraft Gins, Earthbound, Vutomi, Lalula, Lengana, Wilderer, Six Dogs and Melodramatic Gin. These entrepreneurs and craft distillers are a true reflection of the South African craft gin spirit, an industry that continues to grow and we are excited to follow its progress. Thanks to all our distillers for bringing their gorgeous and inviting flavours to our event.

WORLD CUP OFF TO A GREAT START…

For the Springboks and Heritage Hill Villagers

10 September 2023 – With fires lit, the smell of braaivleis in the air, big screen ready and villagers gathered in the Rose Garden, dressed in green and gold in support of the Springboks, a winning atmosphere was in the air. What better way to start off the 2023 Rugby World Cup?

South Africa took on Scottland for their first match and the Springboks were off to a winning start being the first team to score points on the board after a penalty kick by Manie Libbok.

Despite a good start, it was a competitive first half, leaving villagers on the edge of their seats with no tries scored and South Africa leading by a mere 3 points at halftime. As the spring night’s darkness set in, Heritage Hill residents kept their support for the Boks, keeping hopes high.

Tries scored by Pieter-Steph du Toit and KurtLee Arendse early in the second half blew out the game, putting the Springboks in command at

the Stade Velodrome in Marseille. The villagers’ cheers from the Rose Garden could be heard all over the estate, sending sounds of excitement and hope into the air and reigniting the sense of community and comradery we as South Africans experience at its best when World Cups are at play.

South Africa beat Scotland 18-3 in the end, setting a good standard and start for their upcoming games in which they will fight to again be named the Rugby World Cup Champions.

Heritage Hill residents absolute loved the big screen, open air, rugby experience with many begging for another one. So keep an eye open on our communication channels, there might just be another one coming up…

Celebrating Community and Zest: The 2023 Heritage Hill Lemon Festival

Written by: Brenden Roberts

lemon trees stood as a testament to nature’s bounty. Prior to the event, community members took their time to gather ripe lemons from the trees, creating a personal connection with the land and the fruit it yields. With bags filled to the brim, each individual’s unique contribution was a part of the collective effort that would soon be transformed into a culinary delight.

The air was filled with the tantalizing aromas of lemon-infused creations as the community showcased their culinary prowess. From zesty lemon tarts that melted in the mouth to savory lemon-infused pasta that tantalized the taste buds, the festival’s farm-style table became a vibrant tableau of culinary creativity. As plates were passed around and stories exchanged, a sense of togetherness blossomed, weaving a tapestry of shared memories and connections that will last far beyond the event itself.

The festival was not just about indulging the palate; it was a multisensory experience. The rhythmic melodies of live music filled the air, setting the perfect ambiance for revelry and dance. Children laughed and played on a jumping castle, their energy infectious and their smiles heartwarming. For the parents, the festival thoughtfully provided a gin bar, where they could enjoy fine spirits and raise a toast to the bonds that make this community so special.

In a world where the pace of life often leaves us rushing past the simple joys of nature and the bonds of community, events like the Heritage Hill Lemon Festival serve as a delightful reminder to slow down, savour the moment, and come together to celebrate life’s simple pleasures. On Sunday, August 13, 2023, the picturesque Heritage Hill Estate came alive with the vibrant colors, zestful aromas, and contagious laughter of the annual Lemon Festival.

Nestled within the charming embrace of the Heritage Hill Estate’s lemon orchard, this year’s Lemon Festival was a testament to the spirit of unity and the rich heritage that binds the community. The event was a cherished occasion that has become a highlight on the calendar for residents and visitors alike, eagerly awaited each year. As the sun painted the sky with hues of gold, attendees gathered to share in the festivities that unfolded against the backdrop of the estate’s proud heritage garden.

The heart and soul of the festival lay in the lemon orchard, where rows of lush, sun-kissed

The Heritage Hill Lemon Festival of 2023 was a reminder that amidst the chaos of modern life, there exists a haven where the simple act of coming together to celebrate a shared love for nature, food, and community can rejuvenate the soul while enjoying the melodic sounds of Johan Scheppel and his violen, covering every genre of music from ACDC to Ed Sheeren. It was a time to set aside the pressures of daily life, to pause, and to cherish the beauty of human connection.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow upon the orchard, the Lemon Festival came to a close. But the memories forged, the friendships renewed, and the spirit of unity ignited will continue to flourish. The festival was more than an event; it was a celebration of life, a testament to the power of community, and a reminder that sometimes, all we need to find joy is a handful of lemons and the company of those we hold dear.

A special thank you to Leapfrog Properties and AWX Maintenance who sponsored the welcoming drinks and musical entertainment.

Movie in the Park

A movie marathon covering all ages, back by popular demand: The Heritage Hill Movie in the Park event catered for all ages this time, from kids’ entertainment, to heartwarming family films and cult classics. Is there a better way to spend a Saturday night as a family than an open-air movie theatre under the stars? If you missed out on this event, here’s a little teaser of the movies you missed:

The Lion King – The Lion King has remained a Disney favourite amongst kids and adults since it first came to the big screen in 1994. Simba, Timone and Pumba have become some of the most beloved characters Disney has brought to us, and the musical soundtrack one that speaks to the heart of Africa.

The 2019 remake is no different. The modern retake of The Lion King (2019) gives many nature documentaries a run for their money with jaw-dropping photorealistic scenes, integrating technology and nature, and brining it to our home screens.

The Greatest Showman – Set in the 1800s The Greatest Showman tells the story of one P.T. Barnum and his anything-goes circus and believe-it-or-not attractions like Tom Thumb, Dog Boy, Tattoo Man and the Bearded Lady. A group of outcasts brought together by a maestro reinventing the concept of showbiz and daring to follow his dreams despite societal norms. This genuine, charming and spectacular musical, lead by Hugh Jackman, brings with it valuable themes of healing conflict, finding reconciliation and showing kindness. Themes so true and real in our lives today.

Top Gun: Maverick – No movie star seems to work harder and push himself farther these days than Tom Cruise and after more than 30 years Cruise is back on our screens as Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, “the fastest man alive”… well at least in the skies. This breathless, gravity defying sequel to the cult classic Top Gun (1986) does not disappoint like most sequels with great performances and amazing cinematography whilst keeping is cultural relevance.

UNCOMPROMISED ALL-ELECTRIC LUXURY WITH THE MERCEDES-BENZ EQS SUV

The electric vehicle segment is starting to become one of interest for the South African consumer. With improved range capabilities and an expanding charging network these cars are a focal point. Mercedes-Benz has been a pioneer within the all-electric segment and currently offers the widest range of electric vehicles, the latest being the sublime EQS SUV.

With the luxury saloon EQS and the sporty executive saloon EQE, Mercedes-Benz has entered a new, all-electric era in the upper market segments as well. The EQS SUV, the third model series with this architecture developed for electric vehicles has finally arrived on local soil.

This SUV offers plenty of space, comfort, and connectivity for up to seven passengers in its avant-garde, luxurious interior. Thanks to powerful electric motors, responsive 4MATIC all-wheel drive and an intelligent OFFROAD driving mode, the EQS SUV is also capable of tackling light terrain with ease.

Electric. Crafted by Mercedes-Benz

Immaculate and evocative in design, the EQS SUV exemplifies the Mercedes-Benz philosophy of sensual purity, all while striving towards contemporary luxury aspirations. Its innovative and holistic design is rooted in a novel vehicle architecture, setting it apart from its internal combustion engine counterparts at first glance. This unmistakable purpose-driven design seamlessly blends uncompromising functionality, exceptional aerodynamics, and cutting-edge aesthetics. The EQS SUV captivates with its dynamic proportions.

The EQS Saloon is the current aerodynamics world champion for production cars. Its purpose design with smooth underbody and usually closed radiator shutter was a good starting point for aerodynamic measures on the EQS SUV. The optimisation of SUV-typical flow details led to a hitherto unique combination of spaciousness and aerodynamic efficiency. The EQS SUV is one of the most aero-dynamic SUVs on offer today.

Interior opulence elevated cabin experience

True to the luxury lounge concept, the interior of the EQS SUV exudes opulence, harmoniously interwoven with a fully digitised experience. Intelligent software powers the MBUX system, providing users with personalised suggestions for a myriad of infotainment, comfort, and vehicle functions, adapting flawlessly to their individual preferences.

The second generation of the MBUX operating system is now also used in the EQS SUV. With adaptive software, the display and operating concept adapts completely to its users and makes personalised suggestions for numerous infotainment, comfort, and vehicle functions. With the zero-layer design, the user does not have to scroll through submenus or give voice commands. The key applications are always offered on the top level in the field of vision, depending on the situation and context.

Uncompromised MBUX Hyperscreen experience

The MBUX Hyperscreen is one of the interior highlights. This large, curved screen unit spans almost from A-pillar to A-pillar. Three screens sit under a common bonded glass cover and visually merge into one display. In addition to the zero-layer design, the MBUX Hyperscreen offers intuitive touch operation with haptic feedback and force feedback. The scratchresistant glass is coated to make cleaning easier.

TRANSFORM YOUR SPACE:

How Trendy Kitchen Designs Can Create a Hub of Togetherness

The kitchen, once a humble room reserved solely for culinary endeavours, has evolved into the heart of the modern home. It’s no longer just a place to store groceries or whip up dinner; it’s a space where families gather, friends linger, and unforgettable memories are made. In this article, we’ll explore how trendy kitchen designs can transform your cooking space into a haven of togetherness, where shared moments become as essential as the delectable meals prepared.

1. Open Concept: Breaking Down Barriers

One of the most significant trends in kitchen design is the open concept layout. This design philosophy demolishes the walls that once isolated the kitchen and segregating it from the rest of the home. Instead, open kitchens flow seamlessly into living and dining areas, inviting conversation and togetherness.

By tearing down these physical barriers, you’re creating a space where you can cook while chatting with family or friends, keeping an eye on children doing homework, or even enjoying a glass of wine together as the aroma of your culinary creation fills the air.

2. Aesthetic Pleasure: Beauty in Every Detail

Trendy kitchen designs are all about aesthetics. From sleek, minimalist lines to rustic farmhouse charm, there’s a style to suit every taste. The right design not only enhances functionality but also creates an ambiance that encourages people to linger.

Incorporate stylish features like marble countertops, pendant lighting, and statement backsplashes to make your kitchen a visual delight. Choose a colour palette that resonates with your personality and complements the rest of your home’s decor, turning your kitchen into a space that’s both beautiful and functional.

3. The Island Oasis: A Gathering Place

Kitchen islands have become a focal point in modern kitchen design. These versatile pieces serve as a hub for cooking, dining, and socializing. Whether you’re chopping vegetables or enjoying a casual meal, the island brings people together.

Equip your island with comfortable barstools, creating a casual dining space for quick breakfasts or evening cocktails. It’s also an excellent spot for kids to do their homework while you prepare dinner, fostering a sense of togetherness in your daily routine.

4. Smart Kitchen Tech: Simplify and Connect

Incorporating smart technology into your kitchen can enhance the experience of spending time together. From WiFi-connected appliances that let you preheat the oven remotely to touchscreen refrigerators that display family calendars and notes, these innovations can streamline tasks and keep everyone informed and connected.

5. Thoughtful Seating: Comfort and

Conversation

The choice of seating in your kitchen can significantly impact the togetherness factor. Comfortable chairs or banquettes encourage guests to linger, chat, and share stories while you cook. Consider the arrangement of your seating to create cosy nooks where people can relax and enjoy each other’s company.

6. Personal Touches: Showcasing Your Story

Lastly, don’t forget to add personal touches to your kitchen. Display family photos, hang artwork, or incorporate unique decor items that tell the story of your household. These personal elements create a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes everyone feel at home.

In today’s fast-paced world, the kitchen has become more than just a place to cook; it’s a space where we connect with loved ones, share stories, and create lasting memories. By embracing trendy kitchen designs that prioritize openness, aesthetics, technology, and comfort, you can turn your kitchen into a hub of togetherness, where every meal becomes an opportunity to strengthen bonds and savor the joy of spending time with family and friends. So, let your kitchen be more than just a room; let it be the heart of your home.

And when you’re ready to transform your kitchen into a space where togetherness thrives, remember that Hirsch’s can help you make it happen while also saving you money. Simply visit them in-store or explore their online specials and promotions at Hirsch’s Specials and Promotions. With their wide range of kitchen appliances and accessories, you’ll find everything you need to create the kitchen of your dreams without breaking the bank.

Getting the most out of your gap year

A guide for South Africans leaving the nest after matric

By Kim

A gap year is not just a pause between academic pursuits; it’s an opportunity for personal growth, exploration, and the chance to gain a fresh perspective on life. Whether you’re a young South African considering a gap year or a parent supporting your child’s journey, this guide will help you plan and maximise the potential of this valuable time.

“A gap year is an investment in yourself,” says Antoinette Turner, GM of Flight Centre South Africa. “Planning a gap year can be exciting, but it requires careful consideration and preparation. There are fantastic options out there – whether you’re planning on jetting off for a full year, volunteering, or just taking two or three weeks out to travel. For those heading overseas to work, ensure your ‘break’ isn’t all work and no play – it’s easy to add on a holiday before getting into the ‘adulting’ part of the experience.”

Exploring your options: Where to go

For those with an affinity for adventure, South Africa boasts an unparalleled safari experience that surpasses all others. Imagine basking in the untamed beauty of the African savannah, surrounded by the “Big Five” and other rare wildlife species. With exclusive private reserves like Safari Plains and Sabi Sands, you can escape the confines of everyday life and embrace the raw, primal allure of the wilderness.

Classic Europe for the history lover

If you’re eager to immerse yourself in Europe’s rich culture and history, a guided holiday is still the preferred choice for many travellers. Companies such as Contiki and Costsaver offer a range of trips, from short city breaks to month-long journeys, taking you through the major sights of the continent. You can choose to spend most of your time in a specific region, like Italy or Spain, or embark on a whirlwind adventure covering multiple countries. A guided holiday is by far the most hassle-free, efficient, and safest way to explore the continent, and in a short space of time too, advises Turner.

Taylor, Big Ambitions

Embrace new cultures and trends in Asia

For those fascinated by Asian cultures, K-dramas, manga, and bubble tea, a trip to Asia will blow your trendy socks off. Asia offers a diverse range of experiences, from the bustling streets of rand-friendly Bangkok to the serene temples of Kyoto, Japan.

Beach bums, sail Turkey’s coast

If your idea of a perfect gap year involves soaking up the sun on beautiful beaches, Turkish sailing could be your calling. Turkey offers a stunning 8,000 km long coastline with crystal-clear waters, charming villages, and historical sites. Explore the Turquoise Coast on a sailing adventure, where you can swim, snorkel, and relax on secluded beaches. Turkey is also relatively friendly on the South African rand.

Southeast Asia remains affordable for South Africans, with Thailand and Vietnam being particularly popular. Other countries such as Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Singapore, although not as affordable as the Southeast Asian destinations, also offer an intriguing blend of traditional and modern, and an experience completely different to life in Mzansi. Hike Bhutan for the ultimate adventure

If you’re an adventure seeker, Bhutan’s Trans Bhutan Trail with G Adventures might be your dream destination. Imagine trekking along the same path used by royals, monks, and traders for thousands of years! The 12-day trail takes you through high mountain passes, lush river valleys, and villages frozen in time, traversing the ‘happiest country on Earth.’

Did you know this historic route was only reopened last year after being closed for 70 years? As if you needed another excuse to add it to your gap year travel bucket list!

Adrenaline junkies unite on a ski trip

For those craving adrenaline-pumping experiences, how about skiing in Austria? The stunning Alpine landscapes, world-class ski resorts, and vibrant après-ski scene make it a haven for those intrigued by winter sports, including skiing and snowboarding. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a novice, you’ll easily find your feet here.

For something truly special, visit Europe’s Christmas markets

For a romantic and festive experience, start your gap year early and explore the various iconic European Christmas markets. Cities like Vienna, Prague, and Strasbourg transform into magical wonderlands during the holiday season. You’ll be enchanted by the twinkling lights, the aroma of mulled wine and roasted chestnuts, and if you’re lucky, perhaps some snow.

How to make the most of your gap year

Set clear goals

Begin by defining your goals for the gap year. Consider what you want to achieve, whether it’s personal growth, cultural

immersion, skill development, earning money to pay for studies, or a combination of these. Understanding your objectives will guide your decisions.

1. Research destinations

Explore potential destinations that align with your goals. Research each country’s culture, visa requirements, and entry restrictions. Be aware of seasonal factors that may impact your travel plans, such as weather conditions and festivals.

2. Choose your crew

Decide whether you want to travel with friends or embark on this journey alone. Travelling with friends can provide companionship and cost-sharing benefits, while solo travel offers greater independence and personal growth opportunities.

3. Budget wisely ahead of time

Financial planning is crucial for a successful gap year. Start by setting a budget and estimating your expenses. Consider costs like flights, accommodation, meals, transportation, and activities. Don’t forget about the visa costs! Then look for student discounts, travel deals, and budget-friendly options. It’s also a good idea to open a separate bank account for your gap year funds and consider getting a travel-friendly card. To help build that nest egg, explore fundraising options and part-time job opportunities to fund your gap year. Selling items you no longer need or working abroad during your travels can help cover expenses and even generate some savings for when you return.

4. Stretch those rands on the trip

Practice smart spending habits when travelling to make your money go further. Cook your meals as often as possible instead of dining out, use public transportation, and opt for affordable accommodation like hostels or guesthouses. Also, prioritise your spending on what matters to you – be it experiences or splurging on an extra luxe stay.

5. Invest in travel insurance

Travel insurance is a must for any traveller. It provides crucial coverage for unexpected events like trip cancellations, medical emergencies, and lost belongings. Flight Centre offers a range of travel insurance options through TIC, ensuring you’re protected throughout your journey.

6. Seek guidance

Planning gap year travel can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. Flight Centre’s Travel Experts can help you tailormake your dream gap year experience. They have access to a wide range of travel

products, including those that specialise in catering for the youth market, and can assist with everything from flights and accommodation to tours and activities. Take advantage of their knowledge and expertise to create a personalised, budget-friendly itinerary. “A Travel Expert can advise on those moneysaving tips for booking travel that you probably don’t know about or can’t access on your own,” advises Turner. “For example, you can get round-the-world airfares with one ticket lasting up to 12 months or book flights that include multiple stops on one air ticket (don’t skip a leg though!). If you’re embarking on a DIY adventure train-tripping through Europe, Flight Centre Experts are also well-versed in the intricacies regarding which of the many options would be the best fit for you.”

7. Gap year essentials

Prioritise your health by getting necessary vaccinations and medications well in advance. Notify your bank and relevant authorities of your travel plans.

8. Pack smart

Pack and plan according to your itinerary. If you’re doing a tour in Europe, there’s no need to lug around a heavy backpack! Avoid overpacking and be prepared to purchase items as needed during your journey.

9. Prepare for your return Plan for your return by setting aside money for your travel, rent, and living expenses while you seek employment or continue your studies. Update your CV with newfound skills and experiences from your gap year.

Choosing the best Built in braai for your home entertainment area with Chad-O-Chef

Lifestyle products

If you are looking for a way to enhance your entertainment area for your friends and family at home, you will certainly find something in Chad-O-Chef’s vast range of quality braais. The Chad-O-Chef Entertainer Built-In Braai is a stylish and functional choice for high end homes, with many benefits from saving space, high-end appearances & the ability to be closed up while not in use.

Chad-O-Chef boasts expert precision manufacturing, ensuring perfectly laser cut, bent, and welded edges for a high-quality look and feel, combined with meticulous attention to detail during the hand assembly stages, setting their products apart from their competitors.

Before deciding on which Entertainer to buy, you will need to take a few things into account. Most importantly would be where you will be installing it. The positioning will determine whether you can build a traditional chimney above it, or if you will require an extraction system. Forced extraction systems are a great option when you do not have the space for a traditional chimney to go straight up, or when you are building the Entertainer into an enclosed area where the smoke in your living area simply won’t do.

Secondly you will need to decide which accessories are important to you. These Entertainers offer the option of a rotisserie spit (Deluxe), or a simple warmer tray above the braai grid (Standard). Additionally, you can purchase other accessories such as stir-fry pans, skewers and more, which open up endless possibilities to your menu.

Locally designed and manufactured in South Africa, Chad-O-Chef take great pride in their after sales service. You are able to enjoy a three year guarantee on their entire gas braai range with the promise of the availability of a full spare part back up for a life!
