Experienced -36'C in Kiruna on the Arctic circle looking at the northern lights

Survive . Just some advice for travelers 1.You need to hire a car the public transport here is a joke! 2.You need a gps , South Africa is not a small place you will get lost without one! 3.Try not to travel at night for various reasons but mostly for people can't drive in this country , they buy their driving licenses on the black market 4.Keep to the road rules and don't ever pay a bribe when asked by a traffic officer, tell them to take you to the nearest police station to sort it out by that time they will just let you go. When hiring a car take out full cover plus extra cover and make sure that you covered for tyres when hitting potholes here , cause there is plenty of them here!! And then to state the obvious, this is not a Hotel or a Bed and Breakfast, it's a free bed with hot shower and good company, don't come here expecting a free meal and drinks on the house , BRING YOUR OWN FOOD AND DRINKS and if you really want to impress me bring me good beer that we can finish of together. Enjoy your trip
