LIVE LIFE and explore… When you hear the word...COVID-19 or CORONA VIRUS, you get weak in the knees. The past 100 days was just about, protocols, survival and what NEXT! Like ― Olawale Daniel quoted " Covid-19 offers us a great opportunity for individual and collective recession. It is a time to go back to the drawing board and rewrite the next phase of our existence. The upcoming generation has to read about how we fought this pandemic with or without vaccines in order to overcome similar situations during their times.” Lots of questions is running through our minds. As three complete, different guest houses melted together and saw new opportunities. We believe that we need to find the NEW normal, to find the new future, filled with opportunities. That is the only way we will find our NEW normal to host guest again and to feel positive about the future. Sitting down to think WHY and WHAT makes this collection of Guest accommodation a unique basket to attract the people to visit us, WHY LASLAPPIES COLLECTION??? The answer was right in front of us… Start at the beginning, NO No no, the countdown began, 2020 to 2006. The 3rd guest house that join the group in 2018, was Beyond Cui Bono? Beyond Cui Bono? means, "to whom is it a benefit" and the definition of, cui bono, means "for what purpose?". Now, if we find the purpose for you to visit us, you will benefit from it and will enjoy the singing of the birds nesting in our lovely gardens. The 2nd Guest house that joined the group was, Kududu Guest Farm... where the kudu dudu. According to a user from Kenya, the name Dudu is of Swahili origin and means "Insect". A submission from Germany says the name Dudu means "Comfort" and is of English origin. Whatever it might mean... you will find complete comfort and relaxation when you smell the fresh air of citrus orchards and watching the buffalo herds. Addo Dung Beetle Guest Farm was the 1st Guest house in the Laslappies Collection. Situated on a hill top where the citrus trees were not producing quality fruit anymore, but for the past 14 years you will find top quality hosting, with views over the Zuurberg mountains and orchards that you cannot describe to somebody in words. Not only the views will catch your eye, but the one and only true dung beetle suite accommodation in South Africa will add to the uniqueness of this Guest Farm During Covid19 our memories were put on hold but after all this and the new normal has risen like a phoenix add LASLAPPIES COLLECTION to your new longing memory lane. www.laslappiescollection.co.za Magna van Heerden |
