Home sweet home

The other day, a South African asked where home was for me. I replied, " My home is in XXXX village, in the Northwest Province, in South Africa." I realized in that moment that this really does feel like home, not just a place that I'm passing through for two years. I needed to say it out loud, to hear myself say it. I didn't expect to feel this way about being in South Africa, especially after being here for only six months...and it's a splendidly precious feeling.

Much love from my humble abode,
Bontle
