Her role as Sally in the highly anticipated movie, Redeeming Love, which is premiering in Johannesburg tonight will probably lure many to her profile, but be warned: Wanderlust is real. The free diving model and ocean warrior’s Instagram feed is filled with local adventures and South African destinations worth adding to your bucket list.

Kersefontein

The national monument and eighth generation working farm, Kersefontein is located outside of Hopefield in the Western Cape. Not much has changed with regards to the beauty, tranquility, and pure isolation since the farm was bought by the Melck family in 1770. The current custodian and farmer, Julian Melck, has transformed some of the farm’s buildings into luxurious rooms and suites, offering bed and breakfast, as well as self-catering options.

People visit the farm for many reasons – some use it as a filming location, others explore the romantic history of the farm and its surrounds and just indulge in the simple pleasures of farm life.

If you do visit, remember to ask about the farm honey, which is divine!

Grysbokkloof, Montagu

For those who enjoy being out in nature, Grysbokkloof Private Game Reserve’s tented accommodation is another destination to add to your bucket list.

Located 7km outside Montagu in the Western Cape, this glamping spot is the perfect gateway to relaxation and reconnection. It is set on a mountain, boasting magnificent views and it is completely off the grid.

If you’re looking for a place where you can wake up to birdsong in the morning and enjoy the soft whispers of nature from a wood-fired hot tub, this is it.
