Written Luv Letters

There’s a specific feeling when the Phinda airstrip comes into view, and you think, I’m back. This trip wasn’t just about lion cub chaos a few meters away, glittering leopard light, or elephants reaching into the trees. It was about returning to the wild, to clarity, and to a place that feels more like home each time I leave it.

2025 didn’t stand still for a second. From safaris to Formula 1 cars, Monaco winters to quiet roads in Africa, this year was a constant shift of places, people, and perspectives. A Luv Letter to the year that reminded me why I travel.

From final exams straight into ski boots, because nothing says balance like swapping library stress for frozen fingers and après-ski playlists. Christmas in Gerlos was less about kilometres on the slopes and more about friends who feel like family, long lunches in the sun, dancing in ski boots, and songs that are now permanently stuck in my head. Skiing was the excuse, laughter was the constant, and somehow it was exactly what I needed.

Two months, countless sunsets, and more trips to Ikea than I’d like to admit; that’s how my Monégasque Indian Summer began. Between lemon-scented days in Menton, psychic proposals in Èze, and sober nights at Jimmy’z, I somehow found myself calling the French Riviera home.

What started as a longing turned into a return journey to the Munywana Conservancy. Over two weeks, I tracked cheetahs, climbed trees, gave wine lessons, cleared bushland, laughed with new friends, and found myself somewhere between firelight and leopard tracks. I had to find out if Munywana is as cool as I thought, and found out it is pure magic.

A short n sweet trip to Ibiza, full of sun, singing, and strolling. We had early morning in the old town and late evenings in the club. Safe to say that this trip had it all. Even though it was only 3 full days, we made the most of it. We got to know each other even better and planned it all perfectly. This was Ibiza and it was filled with new memories!
