Summary "Life in Cape Town is... bittersweet". Over two episodes, Pria explores white Cape Town through the eyes of locals such as Aryn Guiney. Aryn lives in Hout Bay, a small coastal town south of the city, and commutes to work each day. Aryn is among other whites featured in the programme unanimously proclaiming that The Cape is, and will always be their home.The reasons for this are varied. Partly, it's a sense of responsibility to give back; it's also because of the irresistible, natural beauty of the place - spectacular Table Mountain; the countless long, sandy beaches - as well as some very fine local wineries in the Stellenbosch and Paarl regions. Pria discovers that the other reasons for whites to continue to call Cape Town home include an historical and cultural attachment to the place, particularly for the Afrikaners
