10 Reasons Why I LOVE Cape Town

  1. The Vibe & Active Lifestyle

    Every time I walk the streets of Cape Town, I’m filled with energy thanks to the vibrant atmosphere and the people around me. Have you ever experienced the Sea Point Promenade on a sunny day?

  2. No Judgement Here

    In Cape Town, people dress however they like. That guy in the washed-out T-shirt at the next table in the restaurant? He might just be the CEO of a major tech company. And that’s exactly what I love about this city—whether you dress up or dress down, it’s all about being yourself.

  3. Variety of Landscapes

    One moment, you’re soaking up the sun on pristine beaches with crystal-clear waters, and the next, you’re immersed in a bush safari adventure—all within a 200km radius.

  4. Ease of Travel

    Direct flights make travelling to and from Cape Town effortless.

  5. Unmatched Humour

    The locals’ sense of humour adds to the city’s charm. Even on my worst days, a cleverly altered traffic sign or a witty public joke can have me laughing out loud. Capetonians never fail to crack me up.

  6. Perfect Climate

    Not too hot, not too cold—Even though it can get a little windy and especially wet in winters, overall Cape Town strikes a good balance.

  7. Adrenaline Playground

    As a bit of an adrenaline junkie, Cape Town is my paradise. Whether it’s leaping off a cliff into crystal-clear ocean waters or tackling world-famous mountain biking trails, there’s no shortage of heart-pumping adventures here. We’re truly spoilt for choice!.

  8. Global Business Hub

    There was a time when moving to Johannesburg was essential for making it big. Today, Cape Town has transformed into a thriving business hub, attracting both local and international talent and offering countless opportunities.

  9. World-Class Experiences at a Fraction of the Cost

    Cape Town boasts outstanding wine, food, art, and beaches, rivalling the world’s top destinations—at half the price. Yet, I often feel that locals either don’t realise how good we have it or underestimate their own potential.

  10. Coffee! Cape Town’s coffee culture is truly unparalleled. The city is home to world-class baristas and exceptional coffee shops, with incredible spots to explore on almost every corner. And I can’t resist a perfectly pulled double-shot Americano!
