Bucket list #66 Laser Hair Removal
At the end of 2019 I decided it was time to finally start the process of laser hair removal. The idea of never needing to shave, wax or pluck is a dream come true for anyone. It is only cost effective in the long term because it is an expensive treatment, but once you’re done, and only doing check-ups every year (if even), it is incredibly worth every cent. I started a few treatments on my body and I was really scared that it would be painful. There are so many different machines and watching Kimora Lee Simmonds screeching in pain while getting laser shots, or the Kardashians having their…
Bucket List #61 Climb Lions Head / #62 Climb Table Mountain
My sister and I embarked on an incredible 16-day vacation in Cape Town and we planned to fill our calendar with non-stop adventures! With the exception of a handful of things on our list, we got through a bunch of experiences that many Capetonian people have mentioned they didn’t even know about, despite living in Cape Town their whole lives! We had adventures in the mountains, the ocean and the forests of The Cape and I think we’ve barely touched on the possibilities that are still there for us to explore. The last time I attempted Lionshead mountain, was a couple years back when I was still suffering from severe…
Bucket List #78. Exploring more in the Kitchen
I must start off with saying that my family spoiled their kids until marriage or even beyond that. My mother always cooked for the household and we would always enjoy the foods we loved because she always made somebody else’s favorite and to think now, it’s a wonder she never really wanted to eat. She was always making everybody else’s favorite dishes instead of her own. My mom is half Indian and always enjoyed Indian cuisine, the spicy, more flavorful foods that we were not used to. My cousin may be vegetarian but she makes some REALLY delicious foods and when we visit her, my mom eats more than usual…
Bucket List #63 Run on the beach w/ Duke
For as long as I can recall I’ve always yearned to take Duke to the beach. I’ve seen dozens of dogs frolic in the open air and having all the different elements coming together. Duke was born on 12 August 2009 which makes him a senior dog. I have thought about moving to the coast for so many years and I’m kinda bummed it’s taken this long! But with patience and perseverance, all things are possible. I arrived in Cape Town Sunday, the forth of April 2021 and that very Tuesday was my first day of work. Got through a lot of emails and meetings and just as I was…
CURIOCITY – Staycation in GreenPoint, Cape Town
Our stay at Curiocity was the second accommodation of our Sisters Trip to Cape Town but I am so excited to share our experience with you, that it’s the first thing I am blogging about since our staycation ended. It is a beautiful apartment building on Main Street, Greenpoint, very quirky and artsy even from the outside. THE ACCOMMODATION + PARKING AREA A huge thank you to Lungile who arranged our two-day/ one-night stay and the amazing itinerary she set up before we even arrived. We parked our car in a cute little secured area which I find is always an issue with more off-street parking than anything else, in…
Battery Centre R2500 Voucher Giveaway
Exactly a year ago we hosted a giveaway with Battery Centre. I always choose to do Easter giveaways because we all go on staycations and use our cars. It’s also the time where we have a rise in collisions and accidents by holiday-makers. I have such a crazy fear of road accidents and because of that fear I always make sure my car is in good condition before taking my family on a journey. I want you guys to be safe as well so we’ve decided to host another giveaway. To win, all you need to do is: Follow @tazzadams and @batterycentre on Instagram Follow Tazz Adams on YouTube Post…
Selling Everything & Starting Somewhere New
I’ve watched countless videos of people selling all their belongings and starting a whole new journey and I also thought that would take very large kahunas and never imagined that I’d ever be one of them, but here we are. In 2020 we decided to go through all of our “stuff” and parted with what seemed like half of our accumulated stuff over the years of our lives. We thought that we were living a good minimalistic life, there was so much room and space… but when you set your mind knowing that the place you’re now moving to is going to be almost half the size of your current…
Bucket list #96. Relocate (Research, HR, Furniture, etc.)
The relocation is back on! Just a couple weeks ago I posted that I am going to trust Devine timing and kinda put the whole relocation on hold because I couldn’t find a suitable place. As luck would have it, when I stopped planning and searching for a place, the place found me. My mom turned 70 in February this year, and she has a friend who lives in Cape Town, who always calls her for her birthday, with the exception of this BIG birthday, so she messaged him asking why he’d forget her special day! He immediately called her apologizing and they just chatted and caught up. He mentioned…
I started a Patreon Account
Hi friends, I have been working really hard on my content recently and I thought that I’ll share that I’ve just launched a Patreon account. I don’t usually ask for support, especially monetary support from my friends across any of my social media, but to keep my side hustles going, I would like to request support from people who really love my content. The people who would actually care whether I stopped creating content… A disclaimer for those who don’t know what a Patreon account is: “Patreon is a membership platform that makes it easy for creators to get paid. For creators, Patreon is a way to get paid for…
#8 The Importance of Reading and the Books I’ve read over the last few months
I was doing research on the importance and benefits of reading and I found a really great article https://www.lifehack.org/ So instead of rambling on about it, I suggest that you head over and read the article because it’s so important to know how great reading is for you. The way we exercise our bodies by working out, we exercise our minds by reading. The greatest gift you can award your future (older) self is to have a healthy and “fit” mind. You protect yourself from many diseases like Alzheimer’s, and the article will explain in more detail. Let’s move on to the type of reading to do. Essentially I love…
