I'll use this blog to share my thoughts, ideas, dreams, findings, experiences and whatever else comes to mind, regarding my little mission to the Transkei (a rural area on the East coast of South Africa known as the Wildcoast). In short, what I'm going to do is teach English to whoever I can, learn to speak Xhosa, take photographs and do whatever else I am able to do in the community. My plans are to go in May 2011 and stay for an initial 5 months...then take it from there...

I reckon I'll need Jamie's at home cookbook. In it he tell how he plants all his delicious goodies like potatoes, tomatoes, lettuce, fruit and veggies... Also, by some crazy coincidence there is a woman who started working at the school I teach, who lived in the Transkei for 8 years! I've only chatted to her a little bit so far, but she told me that she planted a lot of her own vegetables... So I'll be sure to talk to her some more and get a lot more good tips! Awesome!

In the beginning...
As a child we used to do a bit of road-tripping during the holidays. The Kruger Park was my favorite place on earth, maybe it still is. That's me, in the green.
