About Heather

Heather is a writer, photographer and blogger based in Johannesburg, South Africa. She moved from Washington D.C. to Joburg in August 2010, abandoning her old life as an American suburbanite office-dweller for a new life as a migrant bohemian freelancer. Heather started a blog on a whim, naming it 2Summers because she experienced two summers in a row during the year that she switched hemispheres.

Eleven years later, Heather has made Joburg her permanent home and blogging, together with photography, has become her career. She blogs mostly about quirky places in Joburg and around South Africa, using a combination of words and pictures to showcase a vibrant, quirky side of this country that is often overlooked. Heather also blogs about her travels around the rest of the world.

In her spare time Heather enjoys boxing, Instagramming, and eating copious quantities of samoosas. Follow her on Instagram (@2summers), Twitter (@2summers) and Facebook (facebook.com/2summers).
