Thuso Mbedu is chasing summer after jetting off to the United Arab Emirates to enjoy down time.

The actress travelled to Abu Dhabi to watch the Formula 1 Grand Prix and went on many escapades while away.

Since moving to the US and making her debut in Hollywood blockbuster film The Woman King, Thuso has had an eventful year filled with hard work.

She got her foot in the door and rubbed shoulders with renowned actors Viola Davis, Quinta Brunson, Kerry Washington and other Hollywood stars.

“There aren’t any words. To be seated among some of the greatest talents of this generation. It makes me excited to see what tomorrow has in store for everyone,” she wrote.

“I believe in my purpose and I'm grateful it has led me to be in this space, constantly learning and growing, getting to see first hand with Viola I realise it is important to have someone to represent us physically in this matter."
