“South Africa never leaves one indifferent. Its history, its population, its landscapes and cultures – all speak to the visitor, to the student, to the friend of Africa.” -Tariq Ramadan

It’s  12 :  45  PM on day 1859 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray,  read Acts 4, publish my Disability of the Day feature, learn one new thing –Mature jacaranda trees can reach heights of between 25 and 40 feet- have breakfast and just chill out – today is the first day in forever that I’m just going to relax I would love to go hang out with kids at an orphanage or something but alas I can’t drive and I don’t want to inconvenience my parents they only get a break on weekends I don’t want to cut into their free time.

A few days ago I watched South African Tourism’s new advert titled “Meet South Africa” and I loved it the ad truly conveys the fact that visiting South Africa is an unforgettable experience (which it is I should know I have the honour and privilege of living here).  Well done South African Tourism! Watch “Meet South Africa” below:
