That house is such a beautiful, eye-catching feature of Muizenberg.
I love it too!

A startling pink wall, and a forlorn, discarded shoe, perhaps epitomising joy and despair.

Yes, it’s a sad fact of life in Africa these days. However, compared to other suburbs in the Cape Town area (and in fact the whole of the rest of South Africa) those spikes are not so common in Muizenberg.

Yes, it is one reason why I will never live there again. I like the freedom I have here to walk alone and not be afraid. (Saying that there are cities and areas where I wouldn’t do that of course). But I do miss the way of life there. Africa gets under your skin.

I have to say I feel pretty safe in the Cape, certainly compared to Johannesburg – which has quite menacing feel about it.
Where I live now it’s also relatively safe. I’m planning a post to illustrate that – keep an eye out for it 🙂
