About me

Cwengile Gagela

C.W.E. — Cwe on route

I'm Cwengile Gagela — C.W.E. for short, which is the name this site carries: Cwe on route. By profession I'm a medical professional, and travelling is the hobby that runs alongside it.

I travel for the places that give the most back: beautiful and comfortable, yes, but also culturally rich — the food, the markets, the history still standing in the street, the way a town behaves after dark. A hotel is part of the journey rather than just a place to sleep, and I'd rather sit somewhere with a view and a story than somewhere merely convenient.

Fashion and lifestyle sit right next to travel for me. What I pack, where I eat, the design of a room, the light in a photograph — all of it belongs to the same interest, and all of it ends up in these journals.
