The bath at the end of the world
Time tends to stand still in Hogsback but the days keep passing by and that is why after nearly ten days i am still here trying to capture the photo that hints at the spectacular and find the turn of phrase that delivers the experience the Going Homeless Project had in this little gem in the Eastern Cape.
I arrived after dark, so I was unaware of where I was and what Hogsback held for me the in...

Much Addo about nothing
After a cool weekend hanging with my peeps and some much-needed stay in one place after a series of one night … go, one night … go adventures up the Garden route, it was time for the Going Homeless Project to slow things down and Addo was just down the road. The perfect place to get my chill on.

So after one night stops in Plettenberg Bay and Stormsriver, Jeffreys Bay was about to get the same treatment only because the weather decided that being shitty was more important than the going homeless projects visit to the legendary surf town.

I did it. Most folks i know did it. I haven’t really been back until now and it turns out to be a pretty damn swell town when you not sleeping through the days.

Hidden from view ...
So after spending the day chilling around Wilderness i headed to Sedgefield for a quick one nighter, an epic fail on my part. I always very wrongly assumed that Sedgefield consisted of a small town on either side of the National road to somewhere else. Hidden away is probably the best kept secret on the Garden Route, Myoli Beach.
I knew the moment i arrived at Afrovibe Adventure Lodge i had...
