Welcome to Cape Town

Chommies, meet Caitlin Hood 👋✨

This Durban girlie is always chasing the next adventure, saying yes to new experiences and finding the magic in every moment. And where better to do that than the Mother City? 🌊⛰️

But even the biggest adventurers need a little R&R. After days of exploring the Mother City, Caitlin took some time to slow down and recharge at Radisson Collection Hotel, Waterfront Cape Town. 🧘🏽

Set on Cape Town’s Atlantic coastline near the V&A Waterfront, Radisson Collection Hotel, Waterfront Cape Town blends oceanfront serenity with contemporary design.

After checking in, she headed straight to the spa for a few hours of treatments, relaxation, and some much-needed quiet time.

“It was exactly what I needed. The perfect way to end the trip,” she says.

No bad days in the Mother City 🥹🫶🏼

Chommies, meet Caitlin Hood 👋✨

This Durban girlie is all about chasing thrills and saying “yes” to new adventures. And where better to do that than Cape Town? 🌊⛰️

Armed with running shoes and a sense of adventure, the content creator and runner is on a mission to uncover Mother City gems.

This week, Caitlin is learning how to make koesisters from Bo-Kaap Cooking Tour’s Zainie Misbach.

Caitlin joined Cape Town runner Liam Lategan to discover the story behind one of the Mother City’s most iconic sweet treats. A Sunday staple in many Cape Town homes, koesisters are a Cape Malay favourite, known for their warm spices, hints of naartjie peel and soft, doughnut-like texture.

She grew up eating koesisters in Durban, but had never made them herself… until now.

Caitlin’s Cape Town story continues. Follow Love Cape Town to see what she gets up to next. 👀

It’s giving surfer! 🏄🏽‍♀️ 🤙

Between exploring the Deep South, content creators Aakifah Slarmie and Caitlin Hood swapped sightseeing for surfboards and took to the waves with a lesson at Surf Emporium.

Fun fact: Muizenberg is one of the world’s top five destinations to learn to surf, so if you’ve been waiting for a sign to try it... this is it.
