Well it’s nearly the end of the month here (although this likely won’t be my last post in South Africa… details to follow), and I’m afraid I wasn’t great at putting up blogs regularly. I’m gonna blame that on two things.

Firstly, technologically, the internet in our hostel is slow. Very slow. Largely because many of us end up on at the same time (we’re all out of the house at the same time and so all in at the same time too). Also, it has a habit of stopping working every few days, usually for at least a day. It’s been fun enough to try and keep up with facebook and emails and then get the online work I’ve been doing complete, let alone try and upload photos, videos and my blogs.

Secondly, practically, I have been really busy since I got here, as you will hopefully see from the blogs I have been writing.

You see, I have been writing blogs as I go, not as spaced out as they should be, but I figured now that I have a back log of them it was best to write one blog directing you to each of them (like I did after China) rather than send you half a dozen blog update emails in a row.

So – South Africa:

  • My month’s ministries – following the blog previous to this introducing you to the work of Volunteer in South Africa, this post details what I myself have been doing.


Also, a video made this month for the ministry we are working with:
