hat’s better than spending the weekend in the cape winelands with sunny weather and superbly cool bespoke outdoor activities? We all look for an escape from time to time, and staycations in the city are wonderful for that, but nothing says disconnection like a weekend in the winelands, drinking copious amounts of wine, horse riding on the beach, outdoor spa treatments and yummy food. I recently took some time away from work and school to explore the winelands further, disconnect from the digital noise and just re-center myself. Word of advice to all on a quest for self-love and rediscovery of the things that matter: few things rival taking some time to yourself to just let loose and live a little. We all deserve a break here and there, and so back to the winelands I headed for yet another weekend of serenity and pristine views. FRIDAY GARDEN TOUR AT BABYLOSTOREN Located in Franschhoek, the wine farm and garden are about an hour away from the city centre. Upon arrival, you’ll be asked to pay a nominal R20 entrance
