Life in pictures

Another reason the #PalazzoHotel is my #favorite is it's also a favorite of many "birds of a feather". 😝 We love the luxury and beauty of this #5starhotel. It is the perfect place/#hotel for awesome #accidentalmeetings. We met at the Pampers ad shoot when Kai and Jeslyn were not even 18 months old. They are now 7 years old.
Another reason the #PalazzoHotel is a #favorite is it's a perfect place for #friends to #catchup over drinks and #dinner. #food isn't bad either. #friendship #goodtimes #happiness Swipe left for a bit of the food.

It had been ages since I was last in Sandton. I felt like a #tourist. Luckily, I enjoy being a #touristinmyowncity. #SandtonCity #NelsonMandelaSquare #NelsonMandela, #Madiba #Madibamagic
#Sandton rush hour is best spent with a drink (still waiting for the drinks when we took the pic), chilling at #SanDeck in #SandtonSunTowers. A pity though, as there's never enough time to enjoy life's #goodstuff. We will see you again, #newfriends!
Spending time with #newfriends, having #dinner at #Aarya, the #restaurant in #SunsquareHotel in #Montecasino. A pity though, as there's never enough time to enjoy the good in life. We will see you again!
A different kind of #weekend... at #DinokengGameReserve #NorthofPretoria. #gamedrive #gamereserve #wildlifespotting #wildlife #Africa #SouthAfrica #nature
It has come to this: I live for the weekend. Sometimes, you need to run away from the daily grind and just be immersed in nature, no matter how dusty. 😛 We spent a bit of time with some of the members of the Philippine Air Rifle Team, currently in Pretoria for the 2019 World Championships. We did a bit of #wildlifespotting in #DinokengGameReserve #NorthofPretoria. #gamedrive #gamereserve #wildlife #africa #SouthAfrica
It has come to this: I live for the weekend. #weekends are made of #goodfriends, #goodfood and #R&R... #rupertandrothschild #FireRoomSushiandGrill #FireRoom #firerolls #Montecasino
Ah, memories... good ol' days. I miss this kind of #businesstravel. 😋 (I don't even do business travel now.) And I missed #tbt. Oh well, let's do #fbf then. 😝 #flashbackfriday 😁 #Onceuponatime when I flew for work, with the boss, in real style. Business class? What? First class? Nah. #privatejet 😀 Some businessmen don't play around. This 10-seater (if my memory doesn't fail me) #BombardierChallenger, the biggest and best of the 3, came last. It is such a beauty. What a ride! The last three pics were from when we had cocktails to celebrate the arrival of the plane.

I decided to cut my hair and I must say it's looking good... until I wash it myself and don't blow dry. 🤦‍♀️😝😂 So as not to waste a good hair day, I took it for some fun time out. 😛 (Kidding! Theatre, bite and drinks were planned before the hair.) #selfie #nofilter #haircut #bob #bobhaircut #shortbob #newhaircut #newhairstyle #shorthair #Asian #Asianhair #47 #blackhair
