Colorful Cape - One Month Remote Working in Africa

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

It’s been almost three weeks since I left Norway.
I’d been to Africa before, but the Seychelles and South Africa is very different from what I’ve seen before. I love both of these countries, but South Africa is just something else.

It’s colorful, vibrant and alive! I love the food here and I haven’t taste anything that I didn’t like! The nature is also something else.

I wish I had more time here. Two weeks just ain’t enough.

Much to look at here!

Coworking spaces everywhere! The perfect city for remote working!

Speaking of remote working. The cofounder of Woo Themes, Magnus, hooked us up with office space at their headquarters in Cape Town. (Woo Commerce)
That’s pretty awesome!!

Working from the Seychelles was a hard. He WiFi was almost non-existing.
Cape Town has been a lot better. Thanks to that awesome office space, I’ve had some very efficient days here.

The Airbnb also has great WiFi and we have enough space, so that the three of us can work without disturbing each other. @arnfinn, @travelmarcus and I are staying together in an area called Green Point.
It’s so quiet and nice here!

That is cool you are going to be working remotely for a month there. I have always wanted to do that. Live and work in a different place every month or two but right now I have a large boat anchor tied to my feet. Soon though hopefully!

If anybody wants to visit Africa, then Cape Town is definitely the place to start, to me I rate Cape Town to be among the most beautiful cities in the world.

I have never been to South Africa before. I did not know it was such a beautiful place. I've always been a desert in Africa. I have never heard of research from the internet. That's why I love Steemit. teaches me something that I want to learn but I am cold for research. thank you also for sharing. @susanne

Thanks for sharing! Cape town is my wife's favorite place in the world we have visited. If you get the chance take a drive down the coast to Hermanus. It's an incredible little town and you can watch the whales from the shore. The countryside around there is awesome too.

Thanks for the positive views on South Africa. Cape Town is certainly a beautiful world-class city...with challenges, like the current drought. Enjoy your stay!

Great images! Did you do any post edits, or was it straight off the camera? (was it a phone?) 👍

Decent article, thanks for sharing!

Wow..Travel is very beautiful..I like it.
I appreciate your blog..I love africa..Thanks for sharing this post..Best of luck

Great pictures. I am wondering always Southern Africa. Have a great time time. May be next year, I will visit Norway. Do you have any suggestions?

Seems like you will love to revisit again😊...

Norway, Africa ... You are talking about very nice things. They are very nice. I wish I could have a life like you. Yes I am so glad that here WIFI is better. You can comment me. 😄 I expect you to do me a magic touch. You're a good lady🖐🖐

And I upvoted and resteemed to you 😊

You are obviously having fun @susanne ...From what i heard South Africa is a very wonderful place.. Although I've never been there :)) ...
Please keep sharing the pictures...let's go on this journey with you! ;)

You said you've been to Africa before... Have u visited Nigeria?

Beautiful Country! Wish you a nice stay!

This is the perfect spot to spend my honey moon. I can feel the sweet weather from the pics

This place is definitely on my bucket list. Did you go on a safary?

Amazing photos. South Africa is on my bucket list. Thank you for sharing

No wifi!
Present era surviving without wifi is surprisingly great.👍

Really interesting way you manage to present your thoughts . It really kept me reading the story . I was impressed how you kept saying : it is something else : and i was like : how could it be . But feel glad you had the travel safe and enjoy for the time you spend there even if it is not enough.
Have a good one .

South Africa looks so beautiful, @susanne! You are very lucky to be able to do remote work in places such as this one :)

Se ve increible @susanne gracias por compartir tu experiencia.. Saludos!

Table Mountain is insane! What a backdrop...

Is that a picture of the coworking space with all the photos on the wall? Perhaps those whom have stopped to work there?

That first photo is the "table mountain" or something like that right? Remember I was there when I was quite young with my parents. It is a beautiful climb if you have a day over 🤟🏼

Enjoy your stay!

@susanne Just an amazing place to have vacations, by the way i need to go travel! Who needs to go vacation too?

Ow how much I miss having a bathtub in my place. It has been 5 years without one. That would already be one big reason to do an adventure like you someday.

I’ve had some very efficient days here.

That combined with the views you have gotten (telling from your photos) make me super happy for you Susanne! Keep it up:)
