PIN-PIN IN CAPE TOWN

KELVIN CORNER CO-WORKING SPACE INSPIRED BY CREATIVES DIGITAL NOMAD As a Digital Nomad like me, you would know that we love using smart devices and technology to run our businesses and to work from anywhere we like. We are a bunch of unique and creative technological breed that prefers to work remotely from foreign countries, provinces, coffee shops,  public libraries, restaurants or co-working spaces rather than the usual boring conventional workplaces. I was excited when I recently found out that a group of creatives created a shared-working space for other creatives to use and I knew I had to visit the place to see what made their co-working space unique from other shared-working spaces around Cape Town.

Cape Agulhas or L'Agulhas  is the southernmost coastal village and a holiday resort in Africa, located within the  Cape Agulhas Municipal (CAM) . The name "Agulhas" , Portuguese for "needles" , is said to have been given to the area because a strange magnetic anomaly occurs here where compasses point true North rather than magnetic North. This anomaly creates confusion and danger for passing ships when visibility is poor. About 250 vessels lost their way and got wrecked on the jagged rocks of Cape Agulhas. Some wrecked ships still lay scattered along the coast, many due to the treacherous Agulhas Reef.
