Staying at Viv's place was absolutely phenomenal! Viv is a warmhearted, helpful, funny, open-minded person, with a huge heart, lots of interests and a wonderful home, that she loves to share with travelers. She makes you feel at home from very first moment you enter the house. And when you leave, you know: you'll always have a home in Capetowns beach-suburb to be.
Whenever you need help with something: she'll be there. Your car has a puncture? Viv knows how to chance a tyre. And where to go to get it fixed. You're looking for a nice place to enjoy a coffee? She knows which place will suit you. Questions about hiking, surfing, mountaineering, music concerts, local books or artists? Viv has the answers.
For me as a solo-traveler it was the best place to be. And I will definitely come back.
