Such a varied landscape, from the mountains to the beaches, deserts and forests. <br /><br />And I have always wanted to do a canopy tour! Really and truly! They just seem like such an amazing experience.<br /><br />So with 11 languages, what is your native tongue?

I'm admitting my ignorance here by wondering what Khosian is?<br /><br />I had no idea that your geography was so diverse!<br /><br />I had to take a course on SOuth Africa in college but it mostly covered political/cultural issues so I didn't know about the geography and cool things like first heart transplant, etc.<br /><br />Were you born in South Africa? What is your favorite thing about living there? Why do you have the privilege of having an office overlooking a reserve? Just curious.<br /><br />Really loved this!Claremont First Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02529859630615522678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-44576684815815283772010-03-17T18:31:16.625+02:002010-03-17T18:31:16.625+02:00Visitng from Blogtrotter!
