I joined the Drifters' South African experience tour in November 2005 for three weeks. Prior to the tour, I had a city stay in Johannesburg at Backpackers Ritz. I was quite ambivalent about the Drifters tour but I enjoyed South Africa very much. South Africa got me even more interested in indigenous cultures around the world. The tour went through the Kingdom of Swaziland as well. This subpage contains the photographic journey of this amazing land.
