El pueblecito al fondo es Arniston. Es bonito, pero no tiene un restaurante de pescado decente // The little village in the background is Arniston. It's nice, but it doesn't have a decent seafood restaurant
La luz que hay en África Austral es un tesoro que, afortunadamente, no se gasta ni se roba. En un post previo sobre Zimbabwe me referí a ella. Cuanto más bajamos hacia la Antártida, los matices dorados se multiplican. En este post hago una compilación de fotos sacadas entre febrero y octubre en Western Cape, la región donde se encuentra Ciudad del Cabo.
The light in Southern Africa is a treasure that, fortunately, is neither spent nor stolen. In a previous post about Zimbabwe I referred to it. The further down we go to Antarctica, the golden hues multiply. In this post I make a compilation of photos taken between February and October in the Western Cape, the region where Cape Town is located.

El Western Cape es una región hermosa y con un poco de suerte se puede comer muy buen pescado y mariscos en lugares simples. El otro lado de la moneda es que está lleno de esas reliquias que son los sudafricanos blancos racistas. Mi otro atractivo del Western Cape es que es aque aquí hay uno de los mejores operadores de viajes a caballo que he conocido: https://africanhorsesafaris.com/
The Western Cape is a beautiful region and with a little luck you can eat very good fish and seafood in simple places. The other side of the coin is that it is full of those relics that are the racist white South Africans. My other attraction of the Western Cape is that there is one of the best horse tour operators I have ever known: https://africanhorsesafaris.com/
So good to be able to travel isn't it? Gorgeous light
It's a chance and a privilege I will never thank enough for. You are also a traveller, but it seems you are more into Asia. I hope i will be able to go to Central Asia one day; i have the feeling is one of the few regions that's not yet crowded by massive tourism and "global" mindset
I'm more into the world 😁 After Japan I went to Costa Rica, and this year I was going (not any more, unfortunately) to Bolivia and Chile. If I may give you an advice, try Kyrgyzstan. It's a hidden gem still pure and without almost no tourists. Good travels my friend
Thanks Antonio, I hope I will be able to make it to Kyrgyzstan!
