My three week stay at Gary's place on Jarvis Street as a 'digital nomad' was one of my best trips to Cape Town ever. Incredibly convenient for De Waterkant, my favourite part of the city with its colourful Victorian houses, villagey vibe and gay-friendly community. The apartment is modern, with lots of storage and a very well equipped kitchen. It also has the added charm of first-floor 'outpost' windows I left open while I was working. However the major selling point is the incredible roof terrace with beautiful new cantilevered umbrella. I walked up the spiral staircase every day to enjoy the view of Table Mountain and sweep of the city up to Bo Kaap. What can I say - a true home from home.
