Blast from the past


Designing websites has allowed us to work all over South Africa. It still remains a dream for us to be able to travel full-time while designing websites and offering ongoing remote supports to our clients all over South Africa.

Picture: taken in Kruger National Park

Francois started designing websites in 2007 and immediately saw the opportunity to be able to travel while working. His first travelling trip was a solo trip to the Kruger National Park for a week. He never felt so alone in his life travelling to a beautiful place on his own. He managed to sell one website but only at a special discounted rate of R500. Francois still has an active website on Kruger (www.krugerwildtuin.co.za) and Marloth Park (www.marlothparkproperty.co.za) . We are able to offer more traffic to our web design clients in these areas via online adverts and backlinks.

Anyways just a short fun blog for a change, showing our "human" and not so corporate side. We offer a personal service and speak the language the average man on the street can understand. At least we are backed by a corporate head office.

While doing this "blast from the past blog" I realise that the dream of full-time travelling while working remotely is still a possibility. Perhaps a more realistic dream is to go and spend a few months this coming winter living next to Kruger in Marloth Park whilst still working. Perhaps do a home swop for a month or two.
