It's a common location for film shoots, as there are some very colourful buildings, quaint streets, mosques. views over Cape Town and some great food sold on the side of the street. It's well worth wandering around for an hour or so, as well as visiting the Bo-Kaap Museum (a view of a prosperous Muslim family from the 19th Century). Atlas Trading is and old fashioned shop where you can buy spices for any dish. Ask the proprieter to mix you the necessary spice for the meal you intend making.

Welcome to St. Lucia
A wildlife documentary parody of St. Lucia, South Africa.
After our two day visit in St. Lucia, I realized that most of my footage was of the wildlife in this beautiful piece of paradise. Since I am a nature lover and also a big fan of the series Planet Earth, I decided to make my own nature documentary of our trip. It was quite a big project and took me longer than I would like to admit, but it is finally finished and I feel happy I can finally upload it!
All music credit goes to Hans Zimmer, Jacob Shea, Jasha Klebe, and all involved musicians for creating the beautiful Planet Earth 2 soundtrack.
However all the cinematography, video editing and voice acting was done by me.
I made this video entirely for non-profit and fun only.
I hope you enjoy!

A hike to The Gates, Eastern Cape, South Africa.
On this day we joined a group from African Heart Journey on a hike to a secluded little piece of the Eastern Cape. I wanted to try capture what we saw in more of a documentary style. We left Cihntsa West at 7am with a hour drive ahead of us to the kei river where we crossed on the fairy and then sat with the group, while our tour guide gave us a brief explanation on the siskei and Transkei and how the river separated them. Also a brief story on the past of the Transkei. We then drove to Trenerys and parked the bus and began our hike to a place called The Gates, we were joined by 3 young boys who wanted to come along for the hike. This is also an awesome place for rock jumping. This is what we got.
We then hiked back to the bus and then set off to Morgan Bay to have a look at the cliffs. After that we were off to one of the villages nearby where we were going to see the lifestyle of the people who lived there and their traditions. Also to visit one of the natural healers in the community and get an insight on how they approach sickness and problems in their lives.
