Capetonians tweet cultural gems for iAmbassadors
Fazielah Williams
Fazielah Williams has lived in and loved her Mother City since birth. Having lived all over the Peninsula during her childhood, she now calls the picturesque City Bowl home and likes nothing more than watching the sun set over Table Bay from the window of her apartment.
A lover of the arts and proud Cape Town fanatic, Fazielah began her writing career by spending many hours as a child conjuring fantastical stories that featured independent heroines from faraway lands who saved the Prince instead. This Capetonian princess has enjoyed stints as a magical arts PRO and TV publicist before finding her calling as a travel writer.
When not waxing lyrical about the Fairest Cape’s most loved attractions and activities and embarking on unexpected adventures, Fazielah can usually be found taking in a show at one of the City’s fabulous theatres.

You talked and Cape Town Tourism’s four visiting international travel writers listened…
Keith Jenkins, Matt Long, Melvin Böcher and Nellie Huang are having a blast trying out your recommendations in and around the Peninsula.
A walkabout in the Fringe district yesterday unearthed plenty of creative jewels, while a visit to the timeless Cape Point, Boulders Beach and dinner at Reuben’s at the One&Only Cape Town were favourites too.
Thank you, Mother City fanatics, for continuously sharing your amazing hidden gems suggestions since Cape Town Tourism’s first Twitter chat on Sunday, July 29, 2012. Remember to keep them coming by tagging @CapeTownTourism and using the #LoveCapeTown hashtag.
