It’s about that time of year again… Summertime is almosthere, which also means that Father’s Day is coming up quickly!My dad has always been so supportive of my career. He is an entrepreneur himself, and seeing his success gave me the courage to start my own company. Earlier this year I finally got to take him for a ride with me over the skies of Cape Town, and it was a special moment to share what I do with him in such a hands-on environment. He was surprisingly calm on the ride—way to go, Dad! I love you so much, and happy Father's day to you and all the wonderful Dad's out there. But with all of that said, searching for the perfect gift for dad is no easy task. I love being able to pick out something special for my loved ones, but with so many options out there, how can you possibly know where to start? Whether you’re going out and scouring the stores (or the internet) for something perfect, or making something from scratch, make sure to shower your dad with love this holiday. In case you need a little jump-start on your gifting, I’ve gathered a few things that I think will make the perfect Father’s Day gifts for any type of dad.
