The entrance to our new vacation/holiday home we'll be renting in Marloth Park beginning on February 11th, aptly named "Orange...More Than Just a Colour." For the link to this listing, please click here. |
This property she chose for us, more than met our criteria. It's a virtual dream house in the South African bush, possessing all the features that make living in the rugged terrain all the more comfortable and experiential.
In Africa, many houses have a name, especially in the Conservancy of Marloth Park and the house on which we paid a 50% deposit yesterday is peculiarly and perhaps aptly called, "Orange...More Than Just a Colour."

We're looking forward to cooking again in this modern kitchen after an 80-day hiatus. |
Not only did she make this outstanding property affordable for us she locked up our time slot from February 11, 2018, to May 11, 2018, a total of 89 days. Once we arrive, we'll work with Louise to wrap up this or other properties we'll rent during our one year stay in Africa.
We'll travel in and out of the country to satisfy the immigration requirements of a maximum of 90 days while we visit many other countries on the continent to fulfill our goals of expanding our African horizons.

Most of the pools in Marloth are plunge pools, intended for cooling off, as opposed the swimming laps. |
Our inspiration to return to Marloth Park was precipitated by two aspects. One, was the bush setting with wild animals walking around the house and two, the amazing friends we made while there in 2013/2014, all of whom we'll see when we're there and have stayed in contact with during the four years since we left.
Today, here in Palermo Soho area of Buenos Aires, once again we'll take off on foot and walk the streets of this fascinating area. Once the holidays end, we'll do a bit of sightseeing.
Tomorrow, we'll share most of our dining experiences over these past few days and more photos of life and culture in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Have a blissful day.

Louise is surely an angel she looks after us as well and we are never dissapointed 😁😁😉
Brianna, thank you for writing to us. It is very thoughtful of you to take the time. Louise is an amazing property manager and friend. We can always count on her to do the very best for each person she meets both as a manager and a friend. We can't wait to see her and Danie again soon.
Enjoy your next trip to Marloth Park!
Warmest regards,
Jess & Tom
