Birthday in Maboneng
04.06.2014 | Cool. I was invited for a birthday party in the Maboneng precinct. After a drink on a roof top with a great view over Joburg by night we had a delicious meal at the Little Addis, an Ethiopian restaurant. Thank you for the invitation, guys. I really enjoyed it.
Getting connected in Melville
03.06.2014 | Strolling around in Melville, the part of Joburg where I stay this week, I found this café called The ITcorner. A place where you can get IT services together with a good cappuccino and nice food. A place where the geeks meet and where I feel reminded of Die Zentrale – the coworking place in Frankfurt where I go to when I don’t want to work in my office at home. The business model is a bit different here at the ITcorner though: As long as you order something you get free wifi for one hour. So, I am eating and drinking in order to be connected and to write this blog post (yes, my B&B has wifi too, but it’s not as fancy as this place and the wifi is much slower).
I am happy
02.06.2014 | How music and a dance floor can make me feel at home easily. Thank you, Joburg dancers, for your warm welcome. Was a pleasure to dance with you!
Sunny welcome
02.06.2014 | Landed safely in Joburg this morning where a blue sunny sky was welcoming me. Staying in a nice B&B in Melville called Die Agterplaas – the photo shows my little terrace. I had my first walk through what Wikipedia calls the „Bohemian suburb of Johannesburg“. Will go dancing tonight.
Take-off tomorrow
31.05.2014 | Just checked-in for my flight to Johannesburg.
