Mzansi’s favourite couple, Dr Musa Mthombeni and Liesl Laurie, are living proof that love and adventure go hand in hand.
From globe-trotting escapades to celebrating every milestone in their relationship, these two have been serving serious couple goals for many South Africans.
Just a few weeks ago, they celebrated their three-year wedding anniversary in stunning Greece, adding yet another unforgettable chapter to their travel diaries.
But the Mthombenis aren’t slowing down anytime soon – they’ve made it clear that 2024 will end on a high note with one last vacation and, as usual, they’re keeping their fans guessing.
Just hours before 2024 wraps up, the couple shared an Instagram video, teasing their next destination.
“Where do you think we are off to next? Passport Marung! It’s time for the last round. It’s time for the final lap of 2024, and we’re doing it the best way the Mthombenis know how to do it.
“Our enemies couldn’t wait for 2024 to be over because they thought we were down bad, KANTI!! Passports ready, and the world is once more our oyster,” they captioned the post.
November saw the couple in the magical land of Turkiye (Turkey), and they definitely made the most of it. Fans will recall that earlier in the year, Musa visited the country without Liesl, which caused a bit of a stir on social media.
As Musa recalled at the time, “In April, I visited Turkiye without Liesl and was scolded by all of you for leaving her behind. ‘How could you do that, Musa?’, ‘Why would you leave the most beautiful woman in the world?’”
So, when the couple returned to Turkiye together in November, they made sure to share the experience with their fans.
2024 has been a year filled with memorable trips for the Mthombenis.
From celebrating anniversaries in exotic locations to spontaneous getaways, they’ve shown fans that life is meant to be lived fully and every opportunity for adventure should be seized.
After initially teasing followers about their secret destination, Musa posted: “We’re in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 ❤️
Baddies and Daddies bringing in 2025 a little bit earlier than everyone else. Celebrating all the good things that happened in 2024 and planning for a spectacular 2025. To a beautiful and prosperous New year from the Mthombenis to you and yours! 🖤
“This is the song that Liesl says is the song of the year. If you don’t agree, argue with your cat.”
