Discover South Africa's Wild Coast
The Wild Coast is one of South Africa's most remote stretches of shoreline. Stretching from East London in the Eastern Cape all the way north to Port Edward and the southern border of KwaZulu-Natal, the region is home to some of the most beautiful coastal scenery in the world.
It is a place of steep green hills atop which sit clusters of traditional Xhosa mud huts; a land of windswept cliffs, deserted whit ...
Dave & Arno go solo
Dave and Arno might not ring immediate bells, but if I say Lithium and Springbok Nude Girls, those bells must be banging around your head! Think back 16 years, not only the birth of SA’s democracy, but a time of rock music emerging in South Africa. These two artists have walked many unplanned parallels, with both David Beretta Owens and Arno Carstens releasing solo albums this April.

Dice falls right for Sharks - at last!
The Sharks hit the straps in the second half to power to a 30-16 win over the Highlanders at Carisbrooke in Dunedin that finally broke their duck in the 2010 Vodacom Super 14.

Challenge: Feta-ish
Location: London Bridge
Month: February 2010
Do you rock around the grave? Do you back into the wave?

People flock to the streets to dance, sing, enjoy live music and drink Guinness, all in celebration of Ireland. The city of Chicago even dyes its rivers green. I had seen ...

Ok, so maybe this is just how us non-musician folk tend to picture the life of rockstars - but when one sees the latest photos of Die ...
Do it outdoors
The benefits of group exercise outside

Make it interesting, do it outdoors
Research has shown that we can burn up to 20% more calories outside. Why? …because our core temperature will always work to keep around 36.8°C! It ...
