Comparison

Advantages of staying in a little cottage, miles from civilisation:

No big walls everywhere.
Kids running free in complete safety.
No light pollution; amazing night skies.
Peace, quiet.
Cape Grysbok grazing in your back garden.
Willie from up the road dropping in to talk about brandy on his way back from fishing.
The sea, just… there *points*.
Front stoop, red wine, sunset.
No alarm clock tomorrow morning.

Disadvantages of staying in a little cottage, miles from civilisation:

Really, really slow internet.

  1. Well, in December I plan to have:
    -No walls anywhere in sight
    -Kids playing relatively freely
    -Zebra on my stoep (if I get lucky – really lucky and it’ll be kudu and/or giraffe)
    -Whatever alcohol is available
    -No interruptions
    -No internet or cellphone reception
    -No light pollution (half the park doesn’t even have electricity)

    Going to be a little slice of heaven…deep in the bushveld…

  2. Shana > I have EDGE via my tablet. It’s not much, but it’s something. 🙂

    Gary > Sounds divine. I presume the alcohol will be available after 6pm and on Sundays? 😉
