N is for my 3 NEW finds in (K)NYSNA on the Garden Route

I spent the last week down the Garden Route and could not resist writing about Knysna.  Our locals, no doubt will roll their eyes that I have included this in my Personal A – Z under N.

About Cynthia Simpson - HapiDayz Travel Blog

I am a fun loving woman who loves to explore new destinations and experiences. My philosophy in life is “Have suitcase, will travel” and I like to drag my family and friends along with me to share in the joy. Naturally, along the journey of “life” I like to indulge in long, lazy lunches, delicious champagne, creamy chocolate and most important, lots of laughter……Having being in travel for many years, I write about my personal experiences, mostly about Southern Africa but I do also get to travel internationally so will pop in some stories about my travels abroad. As food and wine are an integral part of my travel experience I also explore both those topics as well.
