Voetspore (2000)
Suid-Afrika 2
Voetspore in South Africa (2) is a three-month-long journey during the time of the coronavirus pandemic. South Africans cannot venture abroad, and foreigners are not allowed on our shores. This is a time to rediscover our own. Once again, the Voetspore team experienced the variety, hospitality, and extravagance of South Africa. This was emphasized during a journey from Pafuri to Agulhas. The team spent time in the Low Veld, High Veld, Waterberg, Eastern Free State, Karoo, Kalahari, Cederberg, West Coast, Boland, and Southern Cape. This was a visit to places we knew, but also to others where we once more we're surprised by our new discoveries.
