A French Affair

A French Affair

A few weeks ago we finally visited L’atelier for our post-Sunday run breakfast. We had been trying to visit this beautiful spot for weeks, but it hadn’t been open on Sunday mornings due to limited COVID operating hours.

What a treat and …..

That's Nice

Since the 7th of June 2020, when South African lockdown levels were lifted to level 3, and we were allowed to exercise further than the 5km radius from home, we started running every Sunday morning. What started as a way to socialise with friends, get out of the house and support small businesses soon became a Sunday tradition and the search for the best croissants in Joburg.

From the 1st of June 2020, South Africa entered Lockdown Level 3, relaxing exercise hours, allowing one to exercise in public anytime between 6am and 6pm.

Since socialising times had been slim, our running group of friends decided this was a great way to (socially distantly) see each other’s faces and support local coffee shops. We ran in search of the best croissants in town. Each week it would be a different person’s turn to set the route and choose the coffee shop.
