My friends (Jose and Georgios) advised me on going to Margaret’s and Peter’s place. And I couldn’t think of a better place to start my traveling. I stayed there for eight nights and I am going back tomorrow for another five nights. I love it! It is such a beautiful and comfortable place where you easy feel at home. I am traveling on my own and the contact with Margaret before my arrival felt like you have a friend waiting for you in Cape Town. During my stay, Peter and Margaret invited me for a good glass of red wine. They are the friendliest people!
The apartment is located at the heart of the lovely community of Muizenberg. Palmer road is where everybody comes together (at the restaurant Joon, definitely go there), but it does not feel busy at all. Just a friendly town feeling. The apartment is 5 minutes away from the beach so I always suited up for surf at the home and walked down the Palmer road.
In Palmer road you have the shop called Sparrow Society. They make the most beautiful bags (and more). It’s a bit expensive for South African standards but the ladies that work there are working under fair conditions, which is something that always appeals to me. Just check it out!
On the other side of the rail way there is the Rolling Wood surf and skate store. They have the best coffee, very friendly people, and a music jam on Sunday’s. Also a good place if you need to do some working.
I’m very happy that I am going back!
