Ventured to the winelands with the idea of doing a wine tour. drank way too much wine and ended up staying. This was probably one of the more crazy times during my trip. The people on the wine tour were all doing a truck safari. Some had started in london and done the whole continent in the back of a truck. They were quite possibly the friendliest group of people I had ever met and accepted me into there group within only two wine tastings. There were Australians, Kiwis, a couple of SA girls, a couple of poms and an irish lass. Perhaps it was because they were only just getting back to civilisation that they were so happy to talk to someone new. They convinced me to go out to the bars (persuasive b******s) with them that night and it turned out to be a very crazy time indeed.
Stellenbosch is pretty safe and you can walk around at night no worries at all. Having over 17000 students makes the nightlife pretty good too.
The winelands towns visited were Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franshoek. It reminded me a lot of home with all the vines, only more scenic
