I once heard a cover version of Tom Jones – It’s Not Unusual sang on glee and instantly thought its an original from Darren Criss. Turns out, I failed myself by not researching the original artist. This is the type of mistake uncommon with our feature writer Khumo Ntoane, its also usual for her to explore what is around her. We recently cried our hearts out bidding farewell to our “resident nerd” as she decided Johazardburg is killing her vibe. In this article she shares her love for Cape Town in pictures and shows us that truly indeed, she is a global citizen after living in Asia and South Korea she now calls Cape Town home, hopefully for a while before she packs her suitcase to her next destination.
I love CapeTown for all the things that it’s NOT. I don’t expect friendly faces or chit chatter with strangers on taxis.
I expect the tight lipped smiles with shades and the bergies who shout and curse you with deep hatred and the indifferent service at the non-touristy spots.
I also love that there are several places to escape to, mine being mainly the beach and coffee shops. I’m an explorer in this city and at every corner there is something new to discover.
- When the love for a place becomes more than just sight seeing it becomes a home, a comforting place, a breeding ground for ones creativity. With that being said, SP/Represent has good wishes for our beloved Khumzie. Cape Town, its been real!
