South Africa - Stop 17

South Africa - Stop 17




The earliest representatives of South Africa's diversity – at least the earliest we can name – were the San and Khoekhoe peoples (otherwise known individually as the Bushmen and Hottentots or Khoikhoi; collectively called the Khoisan). Both were resident in the southern tip of the continent for thousands of years before its written history began with the arrival of European seafarers.

And before that, modern human beings had lived here for more than 100 000 years – indeed, the country is an archaeological treasure chest
.

South Africa had a troubled racial history leading up to "Apartheid" and finally it's eventual collapse in 1990.
Since then South Africa has become a more representative democracy, but still has some "social issues" most notably poverty, violent crime and widespread HIV.

The LGBT community in South Africa seems well established especially in Cape Town, but the troubling trend in "corrective rape" towards Lesbians appears to have quieted things  down a bit. However we still met some really nice girls.
