The last time I stayed in Jo’burg I ventured to Greenside one Saturday morning in a quest to find a strange little place I’ve heard a lot about: ODD Café. With items like "Avocado Milkshake" and "Red Velvet Burger" on the menu, it’s not difficult to figure out the...
I found this through the wonderful invention that is Twitter and thought it was a very accurate way to explain depression. If you don't have to fight demons every day - even with the help of medication and therapy - you will still not understand the struggle that some...
