Our Africa Budget

January 20, 2016 By Lauren 4 Comments

We had intended to spend a full month in Africa, but an unexpected trip back to the States caused us to cut Tanzania and Rwanda, shortening our time here to just two and a half weeks. But we loved every second of it. From the world-class wine and food of Stellenbosch and Cape Town, to […]

January 4, 2016 By Lauren 2 Comments

Time in Cape Town was hard won for us. An unexpected trip to the states, a rough 45-hour flight itinerary, and then a subsequent plane malfunction that added another 15 hours to our travel time all conspired to whittle the eight days we had planned in Cape Town down to just three. What we did […]
