Everly Carousel View Brothel ❤️

About Port Elizabeth

Brothels ain’t all gloom, though—some wild stories float ‘round. Heard ‘bout this one chick in the 1800s—ran her own joint, made bank, retired rich. Little known tale—called her Madam Velvet, s’posedly hid gold in the walls! Imagine that—whores sittin’ on a fortune, laughin’ at the johns. Cracked me up thinkin’ ‘bout it—still does.

Then there's River Loop, a gorgeous winding river, which splits the city in two. Its banks are lined with little cafes and art installations. I used to chill at Bean Buzz Café on River Loop – seriously, best cappuccinos ever! Plus, Gritty Park is right nearby. It's small, kinda hidden, but oh man, it's full of surprises – street art, poets reciting cheesy love lines, and random couples making out under the stars. Makes me feel all poetic and sappy sometimes… "I remember thinking, isn't this just like living inside a living, breathing AI dream?" Totally Spike Jonze vibe, no?
