Saying goodbye (for now) to Cape Town, and wow this city has changed me in ways I’m only beginning to understand. 

This is the longest I’ve stayed put in one place in years, and not once did I feel restless. For a girl like me, that is saying a lot. 😄

I realized this season of life in South Africa filled a need that I hadn’t fully acknowledged before… but had probably been feeling beneath the surface for a while — the craving for more feelings of “home” and to put down roots; for beautiful nature, vast landscapes, and the African bush; for fresh new energy that feels expansive and inspiring and aligned with what I envision for my future.

I’m leaving with a very full cup, and a very grateful heart. And a lot of photos & moments I never shared but would still really like to, so I hope that’s okay with you. 🤗🇿🇦

👉🏼 These are from one of my all-time favorite sunsets from last year with chrisglaze. Have you ever seen a cloud inversion like this? ☁️ It happens when cold moist air from the ocean gets trapped beneath a layer of warm air, creating a blanket of clouds & fog but leaving the mountain peaks clear. Pretty special!
