    Hi, we are Stephen, Jess and little Hunter, a traveling family who spent 2020 self-converting a van before moving in full-time to drive around our home country of Australia. We have now completed our lap, said our goodbyes, and resumed full-time travel before we wait for our second baby to arrive.

    My family is from South Africa but we grew up in Canada. When my mom would reminisce about the beauty of SA she would speak of the spring flowers in Namaqualand and the view of Table Mountain when the clouds would settle on the top of it like a table cloth. I have never returned but if I do these two sites are on the bucket list.

    Snowy Finland as a country was too white for my taste, but seeing all the greenery and beauty of South Africa is so soothing to the eyes! I am quite scared of adventure activities but for once seeing the stuff in this video made me feel I should try it someday, why not. And then saw the portion where Stephen gets stuck or something somewhere almost near the end of the rope, for a few seconds.. :D

    I hope Hunter appreciates Cape Town and the Cape of Good Hope! I mean NO WHERE else can you find baboons and penguins in the same place and Table Mountain still has plants and animals found no where else in the world! It's truly a special spot where sailors would restock on wine and fresh fruit from Europe to Asia and Table Mountain has been home to people for thousands of years! Yeah, it's a fantastic place to visit and I truly thank you for sharing it with us while giving Miss Hunter a treat before her new baby brother is due to arrive!
