Hi, my name is Noleen and I live in the beautiful city of Cape Town. I’m just an ordinary person who lives a simple life and enjoys blogging. I have two gorgeous daughters and a wife to the most amazing man. So chillax, grab a cup of coffee and stay a while.

  • In just over 2 hours we as South Africans will endure a mandatory 21 day lockdown to flatten the curve of the COVID-19 pandemic. My family and I will give our full cooperation and will adhere to the strict measures enforced on us. But as social beings who always had freedom of movement; this is something that does not come naturally to us. We need social connections to stimulate us, to bring us comfort and to help us cope with the daily stresses. In order to cope during this difficult time, Brent and I have put a few measures in place as being socially restricted will definitely affect our psychological wellbeing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Read about it by linking into my bio. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For now I want to wish you and your family all the best during this time. As we enter into the final hours before the national lockdown just know that we will be tested physically and psychologically. But we are resilient, this will give us a new perspective on life and we will come out stronger than ever. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Keep calm and stay safe! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #covid_19 #socialdistancing #lockdown #family #mentalhealth #southafrica #thisisme #real #realtalk #authentic #mom_hub #theheartcaptured #thebloomforum #littlestoriesofmylife #love #thatauthenticfeeling #happiness #thesugarjar #livethelittlethings #our_everyday_moments #mom #momtogs #momswithcameras #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #capetownblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger

  • Still keeping within our social distancing boundaries; we quickly sneaked out this evening to avoid the crowds and headed to our local @marcels_za at @blueroutemallofficial. We had the new Peanut Butter flavour frozen yoghurt. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Made from 100% natural peanut butter it is creamy and absolutely delicious. This irresistible flavour is available in stores from 19 - 29 March 2020. So head on over to your local @marcels_za and give it a try - that's if you don't have a peanut or nut allergy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Peanut Butter is Peanut Better!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sponsored #marcelsfrozenyoghurt #peanutbutter #eats #yummy #delicious #frozenyogurt #irresistible #powerofthemind #thisisus #familytime #thatauthenticfeeling #documentinglife #livethelittlethings #littlestoriesofmylife #livecolorfully #simplicity #seeksimplicity #reclaimthehappy #theartofslowliving #darlingweekend #lookbook #candid #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #capetownblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger
  • Social distancing or self-isolation is the perfect time for self-care. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Got me a few Autumn shades and did a quick manicure with @morgantaylorsa - 'Latte Please' ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #autumn #nails #nailpolish #manicure #nailsonfleek #prettynails #nailfashion #instanails #color #style #instastyle #beauty #lookbook #theartofslowliving #liveauthentic #livecolorfully #simplicity #petitejoys #mytinymoments #momentsofmine #mom #momlife #doubletap #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #capetownblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger
  • 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗸𝗶𝗱𝘀? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ On Sunday the President announced the strict measures that has been put in place to control the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic in South Africa. Social-distancing and that schools will close on 18 March and only reopen after Easter were two of those measures. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As both hubs and I work in the education sector (basic and higher education) we will be at home with our kids and will work remotely apart from the recess period. I have friends who don't have a support system and are not fortunate to rely on grandparents or other family to take care of their kids during holiday times. They usually sign their kids up for holiday club but this is also no longer an option. They basically forced to take leave and in some instances unpaid leave. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So my question is to those parents who work in other sectors, those who can't be at home and whose jobs don't allow them to work remotely. What measures are you putting in place and who will care for your kids during this time? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #covid_19 #socialdistancing #family #magicofchildhood #childhoodunplugged #exploretocreate #letthemexplore #wildandbravelittles #runwildmychild #cameramama #mom_hub #theheartcaptured #thebloomforum #candidchildhood #love #thatauthenticfeeling #happiness #thesugarjar #livethelittlethings #our_everyday_moments #mom #momtogs #momswithcameras #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #capetownblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger
  • 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ While the world is freakin out about the Coronavirus and more cases are being confirmed in South Africa daily, it just makes us mindful of exercising basic hygiene. Whilst everyone is scrambling to get hand sanitizer and there being a shortage of it - washing your hands with soap and water is the best way to fight those germs. It goes beyond me how some people can still leave a bathroom without washing their hands. I just witnessed it again today at a mall. It's just dusgusting ok. And to think adults are behaving this way. There is just no excuse for this. People; water restrictions have been lifted months ago and soap and water is the best way to kill those germs. So just stop being gross!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And on that note - enjoy the weekend peeps. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #justme #real #realtalk #thisisme #thatauthenticfeeling #mystyle #makeyousmilestyle #lookbook #mood #mytinymoments #littlestoriesofmylife #lifeunscripted #livecolorfully #simplicity #seeksimplicity #reclaimthehappy #theartofslowliving #discoverunder5k #candid #portraitmood #mom #momlife #honestmotherhood #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #capetownblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger
  • This morning I was invited to attend the Brave Media Lauch which was held at @lifegrandcafe . @media24_open in partnership with Adcock Ingram OTC is spearheading a campaign looking for ordinary healthcare providers including pharmacists, nurses, doctors and paramedics who are doing extraordinary work in their communities. The campaign aims to celebrate these unsung heroes of brave professionals who are selfless and walk the extra mile by attending to the medical and healthcare needs in their communities and making a real impact. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This is such a great initiative and I have already nominated a healthcare professional who I believe is making a real difference in the community despite the obstacles she faces on a daily basis. You too could nominate your local community pharmacists, nurse or healthcare professional and stand a chance to win R5000. For nominations link onto https://partners.24.com/sponsorsofbrave/index.html ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bravemedialaunch #sponsorsofbrave #brave #adcockingramotc #media24 #unsungheroes #positivity #inspiration #inspo #initiative #kindness #selfless #womensupportingwoman #event #social #media #campaign #humansofjoy #feelfreefeed #feelgoodstories #life #real #authentic #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #capetownblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger

I pull an all-dayer and when it's time for bed I simply can't fall asleep. Resulting in pulling an all-nighter as well. For the past couple of nights I only manage to fall asleep at about 02h00 and then by 05h00 it's time to wake up. I drank chamomile tea, cut down on my caffeine intake, no snacking at night and limited screen time too but nothing is helping. I was told to either take a multi-vitamin during the day or a sleeping tablet at night. The thing is I'm not good at adhering to taking tablets and I'm scared of popping sleeping tablets. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Anybody experiencing the same thing and what is helping you to sleep better at night. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #justme #real #thisisme #thatauthenticfeeling #mystyle #makeyousmilestyle #lookbook #mood #mytinymoments #livethelittlethings #littlestoriesofmylife #lifeunscripted #livecolorfully #simplicity #seeksimplicity #reclaimthehappy #theartofslowliving #discoverunder5k #candid #portraitmood #mom #momlife #honestmotherhood #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #capetownblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger

  • The Mr and I are planning a quick romantic escape for our next anniversary without the kids. Our travel criteria is that it should at least be 2 - 4 hours drive out of Cape Town. We trying to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life and therefore we seeking a quiet retreat that offers tranquility - so definitely the countryside. It must be affordable but still gives us the best value for money in terms of experience, setting and facilities. We narrowed it down to 6 possible destinations in the Western Cape. #Linkinbio ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have you been to any of the places we listed and what was your experience? or Do you know of any other beautiful destinations that fits our criteria? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sp post in collab with @travelstart ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #travellove #travelinspirationon #travel #travelwithme #thisisus #couplegoals #marriage #marriagegoals #romantic #qualitytime #love #loveauthentic #theartofslowliving #reclaimthehappy #humansofjoy #feelfreefeed #darlingweekend #ourcandidlife #feelfreefeed #littlestoriesofmylife #parents #blogger #bloggerlife #momblogger #lifestyleblogger #samomblogger #southafricanblogger #capetown
