So, I almost have my dream job. I have about a month to find a house, an au pair and to move. Panic is running quite high. How do you organise all of these from adistance? This is a move from Cape Town to JHb we are talking about!
Today I drove to Wellington. The mountains were stunning, full of green and blue hues. I will miss this beauty very much. Gauteng is a strange and scary place for me. I will miss the mountains, the wine farms (the poor service?) and most of all the wonderful friends.
No more impromptu cocktail parties with Ruari, no more Liesl popping in for a cigarette and a glass of wine, no more "skinder" sessions with Nikki and Marise.
I will still have SAArchitect though, and I am sure I will make new friends in JHB. Already people like Kevin Trethaway and Fengol are going out of their way to assist where they can.
JHB, here I come, ready or not. I am bringing a little bit of Cape Town with me. the mountains are too big to drag along, so it will have to be a few crates of wine...
