MOST AMAZING EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. What an awesome time we had. I took two of my college class mates, Natasha ans Dane, back to Zim with me for our vac. We decided to be adventourous and take on the mighty Zambezi river. White Water Rafting is a once in a life time experience. I definetely commend it to all you adrenaline junkies. We started off at 7am, meet the crew, they explained all the hazards and safety procautions and then kitted up in life jackets, helmets and awes. Then took to the hectic hike down the gorge. Once at the bottom we got into the rafts and off we went. Rowing for 3 hours was strenuous! we capsizes once throughout the 19 rapids, very impressive!! When we did capsize it was an awful feeling, i ... read more

In 2010, I was selected to play Hockey and Waterpolo for the Zimbabwe U19 team. The tournaments were held back to back in Johannesburg, South Africa. Sport has been a big part of my life since i can remember. In the Hockey, Zimbabwe place 2nd over all. First was South Africa, then us(Zimbabwe), then Namibia and last was Botswana. What a tight competition it was, although very enjoyable. Zimbabwe placed First in the waterpolo competition, beating South Africa only by a few goals. A very tight match the final was. Team bonding throughout these two tours must have been my highlight. I really enjoy being a team orientated person. I had a blast on both tours :)... read more

On the 21st of October 2011, I went on a field trip with my Travel and Tourism Class. We went to SAB worl of beer in Johannesburg. We started off at Varsiry College in Pretoria, hired a bus and left for joburg. When we got there we checked in and had to give them our lunch orders, so that they could preapre it whislt we were on the tour. After that we had some time to mess around and take photos while we waited for the tour to start. If you have a look at the photos, you will see all of us having a good time and taking some crazy pictures and some very sweet class photos of all of us. The tour finally began with a narrator telling us all about the history of ... read more
