So I just received my placement information for my first volunteer experience, with Dramatic Need (www.dramaticneed.org). I will be staying with a couple on their farm in Viljoenskroon and teaching at 4 different primary & 1 high school in the area. I've had to be very patient and take lots of deep breaths with regards to not knowing exactly how things would pan out, so I can relax a bit more now. More specific info to follow.
This blog was started in 2008 to reflect on my volunteer work in South Africa. My intentions to live in SA stem from an attraction to what rises out of a place grappling to find a new identity and the people struggling to find their place in a new democracy. I stay on, not always knowing why I am here and what I have yet to accomplish. This blog is an exploration of my time, my limitations and my triumphs in this land. I hope there are some pearls to glean for those who read these postings!
