Freshly Ground at Sam Levy’s Village may already be a familiar name to many, but after my visit, I finally understood why it keeps its place so comfortably on Harare’s coffee map. I arrived around 8 am on a Saturday, which in hindsight may have been one of the reasons I went on to have […]

Hi All If you’ve been brought up in Zimbabwe and had a decent education (Gifford Tech in my case!) you will probably have been taught about the wonders of our outdoor life. You should, surely, know about the Big Five wildlife believing that to see all of them is something you must do before you meet up […]

The Castrol 4×4 Jamboree 2026 was the place to be for anyone who loves engines, adventure, power, and a good dose of adrenaline. Held at Donnybrook, the event brought together 4×4 enthusiasts, families, spectators, sponsors, and some seriously impressive machines for a weekend full of action. Every climb, dip, tilt and muddy challenge had the […]

The Pomona Art Wall along Borrowdale Road is slowly becoming more than just a wall. Through conversations with both Lin Barrie and Sharon Hook, we gathered a deeper understanding of the ongoing work. With the combined efforts of Clean and Green Zimbabwe, Dulux Zimbabwe, CaliGraph, Lin Barrie, Harare SPCA, and several community partners, the space […]

Hi All I’m of the opinion that one should set aside one day of the week to do something completely different to the daily workday grind. Such a day is universally known as “The Sabbath Day” – when you switch off from the humdrum of day-to-day life. Those with deeply religious feelings will, on their […]

This past weekend, I dedicated my mornings to running 10km and walking 5km, every morning from Friday through to Sunday. Why, you might ask? Truthfully, I also wish I had a proper answer for you. By the time Sunday morning rolled around, however, it felt as though the fatigue from all three days had decided […]

HI All Five years ago, I bought a brand-new Manual, Isuzu 2.5D double cab from Autoworld – it satisfied all that I needed in a vehicle at that stage of my life – reasonable price tag, powerful, robust, and comfortable. During that time, I have traversed over 110k km driving from Mana Pools to Masvingo; […]

Drive Zimbabwe Senior Plus, because independence should never retire. There is a special kind of strength carried by those who have walked life’s longer roads, our senior citizens, widows, and single mothers who have held families together, made sacrifices, and kept moving forward no matter the odds. For many, driving is not just about getting from […]

If you were in Harare last Friday morning, it could be described as rather cold, at least according to my standards. The air was crisp, and there was also some light drizzle in the air. With such conditions, one would naturally require something warm to soothe themselves. This is what led me to Alfresco at […]

In those first few moments after a collision, everything can feel overwhelming. Your heart is racing. Your thoughts are scattered.  But what you do next matters for your safety, for others, and for what follows. 1. Stop. Always. No matter how small it seems, stopping is not a choice; it’s your responsibility. 2. Make the scene safe. Take a breath, […]

HI All I drove down to Gweru late last week to see a few of Softrite’ s payroll clients – I left early, so I arrived mid-morning leaving plenty of time to travel the extra 80km south to the Jabulani Safari camp a short distance east of Shangani. Jabulani Safaris is set amongst granite kopjes […]

On Sunday afternoon, I made my way to Miombo Mountain Lodge with one goal in mind: to finally experience one of their much-talked-about weekly Sunday sessions. As it turned out, the afternoon had a pleasant surprise in store. Taking the stage was the FaB Fusion Duo, a husband-and-wife pair who form the heart of the […]
