Roxanne First's insider guide to Cape Town

Where is your favourite destination and why?

Cape Town in South Africa. I was born in Johannesburg and now both my parents live in Cape Town. I go back a couple of times a year. As soon as you land, the warmth hits you; the smell; the colour. I think there is a real energy to it and it feels like a very happy place. I love it because it’s home, but I also love it because I think there are some amazing things going on there, in terms of restaurants. I think the vistas are incredible. All the views are like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Whenever I go back there it feels like I’m going home.
