I Heart Soweto

Some Soweto Street Art!

The Soweto tour was the highlight of my trip to Johannesburg – interesting, educational, vibrant, eye-opening, and most of all, fun. Here I’m going to let the photos speak for themselves…

 

This lady saw us taking photos and asked if we would photograph her too, so let’s give her pride of place!

The most photogenic girl we met in 3 weeks of travelling South Africa!
