For Those, who don't know, I spent 10 weeks in South Africa studying abroad in the beautiful city of Cape Town last summer. These set of pictures are from the time I spent there. Actually, I made a special section ilaborating more on my South African experience, which I welcome all to check out. Therefore, these sets of photos are just a little taste of what I have in my South African section.

The first weekend at our host families homes in South Africa, the other two students in the exchange program (Holly and Shannon) and I arrived at our host parents in the neighbohood of Belhar, immediately Shannon's host brother and his friends took us out of the house and showed us how to get around Belhar by train and taxi just so we would know how to for the remainder of the trip by outrselves. Many of the people in our host families were like all amazed and stuff when we got back from us taking the train because the train and taxi was said to be unsafe. Safe or not, we still had to do it anyway just for the cool experience. I remember how Grant (Shannon's host brother) and Eddie(Grant's friend) were telling us on the train about all the times how them and people they knew got robbed, in fights, and other cool stuff that happend to them while ridng the train. Didn't scare me at all but man....it was so fun hearing them tell these stories and riding this dangerous train at the same time.
