Cuz this is Africa!

The clouds, I can't describe how amazing the clouds are here. 
Pictures will not do them justice. 
But I'll try and give y'all a little taste of it.


We were stopped for traffic: little photo op. 


A squatter park, right behind a huge 1st world church.
It's a strange thing, two worlds being so close. 



The lighting was so pretty! 


I have made it to the beautiful country of South Africa. 
And already feel like I will leave part of my heart here. 

The voyage to get here was no small feat however. 
20 hours all together, if you get the direct flight from JFK. 
Then you arrive at 0745 and have a full day to explore. 
Let me tell you, 60 hours with only 5 hours of sleep sporadically spread throughout
is not the easiest thing to do. 
Surprisingly I managed to stay quite energetic throughout. 
(well, except for those couple hours stuck inside a dark metal tube for 14 hours)

Here I am, and here I will live for the next month. 
Doing this, that and the other. 
Taking pictures wherever, whenever I can. 
Because when you leave a place, 
all you take back are memories and pictures.
