DIARY OF A SUPERHOST

Avid globetrotter Marlène Leclerc, originally from the Netherlands, eventually settled down in Paris after many years spent on various continents for her career in tourism, only to meet a
South African not long after, packing everything up and moving to Cape Town, where another exciting and well-travelled career in corporate began.
So was that it? Nope. After years, having moved on from corporate – well paid but too shallow after all she found – to humanitarian missions in a logistic capacity for international emergency medical relief organisation MSF/Doctors Without Borders, even that eventually changed, as always, just like that… no plan. It just so happened.
The South African man left, and a new life began. Including a move to the complete opposite side of Cape Town, and a new bijou of a house on the water, with a first floor that was just made to become an Airbnb. And the rest is history.
Read the first of a hilarious bunch of incredible – but true – events of what her variety of guests brought along.
Flamingo View, the Airbnb in the Deep South of Cape Town, has become a story-magnet, with the sequel being finalised while you read this one, enjoy!
