Two weeks ago I arrived Cape Town, and the first thing I did was to rent a car and drive to Gansbaai where I surprised my friends I worked with in June/July earlier this year.
I only stayed there for 2 days, before returned the car and got into Cape Town, where I stayed at The Backpack, which is an awesome hostel. It was clean, nice and close to Long Street (without being kept awake during the nights). There I met the Norwegian nurses who had been working in Lusaka, there was also another 6-7 nurses who had been working in Namibia. So the first day I spend wine tasting. The word tasting might be substituted with drinking. Because after visiting 5 different vineyards we was pretty influenced.
The rest of the week I spent with some of the other sports volunteers doing different activities, like quad biking on sand dunes, hiking Table Mountain and Lions Head (sun set), kloofing (abseiling and cliff jumping) and mountain biking for 30km.
It has been a great week, but since I haven't brought my laptop I hadn't been able to upload my pictures and videos from my GoPro camera. Which means you will only see pictures other people have been taking on this post.
Last Sunday I went to University of Western Cape, where all of us sports volunteers finally met. Some work in Zimbabwe, others in Brazil and then the majority in Zambia.
Tuesday evening we had a nice dinner at Mama Africa with our lecturer Anders Hasselgaard, also known to be a former Premiership player in Norway. On Wednesday I went on another hike, this time up Table Mountain and Devils Peak. I really miss hiking in mountains so I've been hiking a lot since I got here. I haven't spent one day at the beach yet. If the weather is nice, I'm hiking the mountain!
