Although I've been in the Western Cape for several months, I'm working in a remote area with a small social circle primarily of other foreign volunteers. I would love to meet some more of the locals and see the country from a more South African perspective. Unfortunately, I am not in a position to host guests as I live on a project ran by the local charity. I hope you'll trust me to pay-it-forward when I'm set up back in the US!
