Entering a new cultural context requires important traits on the part of the newcomer. We, as visitors to South Africa, will keep in mind the following:
- humility
- curiosity
- flexibility
- respect
Our hosts, drivers, and teachers are generous as they share with us the social realities with which they live. We are grateful to them and anticipate a rich, challenging and rewarding month!
