About me
Hello! I’m Mimmie,
This travel blog was born naturally from my Passion for Travel and my love for writing about our Adventures. Since pursuing my travel dreams and experiencing the excitement, the quest to explore more and more has become an obsession.
Altogether, our experiences from travelling to 4 Continents and exploring 22 Countries, as well as friends asking me for travel advice.
My happy place is to explore unknown places, experience adventures, and learn about other cultures. I was raised on a farm in the Springbokvlakte in South Africa. As a child, I used to climb trees, play with mud, swim in farm dams, and walk the goats to graze.
Besides my love for animals and nature, I always had a passion for exploring new places, doing exciting things, and participating in various sports activities.
With such a big World, I want to explore and experience many more adventures after halftime. This travel blog is a product of my undying passion for travel and my enthusiasm for chronicling our adventures. Pursuing my travel dreams has ignited an unyielding desire to explore more and more.
So far, we’ve travelled to 4 continents and ventured through 22 countries, leading friends to seek my travel advice. My ultimate joy lies in discovering uncharted territories, immersing in adventures, and embracing diverse cultures. I was raised on a farm in the Springbokvlakte in South Africa – a childhood spent climbing trees, playing in the mud, swimming in farm dams, and shepherding goats.
In addition to my affinity for animals and nature, I’ve harboured a lifelong passion for exploring new places, engaging in thrilling activities, and participating in various sports. I aspire to continue embarking on countless more adventures in this vast world.
About us
We live in sunny Pretoria, South Africa, with our dogs and cat. Besides that, I like to play with our dogs Dashuri and Rosy, a rescue Africanis dog. Most pet-friendly places only allow small dogs, and then, unfortunately, Rosy can’t come with us. But on the other hand, she is our watchdog at home and very good, I must say.
Johan and I spend time at the gym; both love running, cycling and hiking. We finished the Comrades marathon and various other marathons and cycling races. Although I have wanderlust genes, Johan is not interested in travel planning or involved with the blog. But he thoroughly enjoys every travel journey, not knowing what the next day entails as an adventure coach who knows where we are going next.
We recently bought an old Cargovan, which Johan converted (all by himself) into a fully equipped, off-the-grid Motorhome, ideal for Road trips in South Africa. You can read about our Travel in a Van. We recently featured in the Tuis Magazine and Drive South Africa Roadtrip Explorer.
