In South Africa's largest
province, the Northern Cape, about halfway
between Cape Town and Upington in the Karoo,
lies a gem that can Alta & Erwin Coetzee truly
be called Home away from home. In this haven you
can relax to your heart's content because the
atmosphere is so conducive to it. This haven,
called Calvinia, is a town where people are
still real, where you can stop a stranger to ask
directions, or sometimes just to chat. Here you
can allow yourself to be "transported" to the
past while still having the best of modern
society at your fingertips.
In Calvinia you can relax and recharge the
batteries without the bustle of over- populated
holiday resorts. Calvinia is a town in a time
warp, where the past and present are
intertwined. This is a land where, 250 million
years ago, prehistoric dinosaurs tread the
earth, leaving unique flora, fauna, geology and
paleontology in harmonious concord with the
infinite universe ... truly a place with room
for all. Life in this picturesque town seems to
be going slower than elsewhere, giving you time
for the more worthwhile things in life.
Here you are welcomed like the
prodigal son, and treated like a local from the
outset. The friends you quickly make in this
town will go out of their way to accommodate you
with almost any request you may have. Here you
easily forget about traffic jams, and other
perils of modern life. The
lasting first impression is one of calm
sophistication. |
