The same party that fought for and won freedom of speech in South Africa is now being accused of spearheading a campaign to bully the media. So is the African National Congress, or ANC, really trying to push the country back into days went apartheid

SouthAfrica is a country that always creates an impression. We know of its diversepopulation, the troubled history of apartheid, and its rebirth as a globaltravel destination. I've been a fan of this country for many years. Butthis is my chance to go

All ready in my walk, I can see how changeable conditions here can be. A build-up of clouds often leads to thunderstorms in the afternoon, a bit of problems for walkers like me, but it does add us an air of mystery to the place. Did you know that, ap

Well, there it is, Molopo Gorge. And that has got to be Norberts little project tucked away. The hot springs were largely funded by a private benefactor and designed to draw all Green Kalahari visitors to Riemvasmaak. Ironically, the town with incons
