Caroline's Travels
Well, I'm back being a student again which is a lttle crazy! It has been really strange moving back into halls again and going back to cooking some pasta classics.
Stellenbosch is really pretty and our campus is right at the base of the mountain range. However, it does kind of remind me of Stepford Wives a bit because everyhting seems a little too perfect. Well, not that perfect because it has been chucking it down with rain since we got here and I've packed completely the wrong wardrobe. I think I might get some strange looks it I go around sporting my bikinis!
We've just spent the first week going on site visits to our volunteer projects. There are quite a few actaully and they all look great so I'm just waiting to be heard where I'll be placed.
I also start classes on Monday, apparently I'm doing courses in Transitional Justice and Afrikaans. Alright then!
I'm sure they'll come in useful someday...........
I've been out a couple of times to sample the nightlife and the cheap wine! Its pretty much like any student town with cheap drinks and an abundance of cheese. Its really strange going out and not being stared at all the time like we were in Brazil. Here we're normal - apart from being 2 foot smaller than everyone around here!
Anyway, I'll keep you updated with the project work and whether I get up to any student antics. Bye for now.....
