If you have followed my stay in and around Cape Town, you surely notice how lucky I was. Indeed, I’ve been hosted by my friend Morne (@big_red_adventures_za ) for 10 days in Hermanus. But not only…


He took good care of Rafiki: full service check, parts replacement, load bed repairs, and…a solar panel (+MPPT charger controller + long cable) for gift!


I couldn’t feel happier -and even more self sufficient- with this new equipment. The only issue: to find a way to fix the solar on the roof of the cab -to dangerous to keep it inside, its sharp angles next to my eyes.


On these photos, I arrived to that new place owned by a friend of friend: the beautiful @kambati_river_resort_ , where I was excited (like a little girl!!) to try the solar out!

Nice story to know: if you have watched my Youtube video 2 weeks ago, this is the place where I slept alone with Rafiki for the VERY FIRST time in Africa!


And a new Youtube video is coming live this Sunday by the way!
