AFI Africa Fashion Week- Sightseeing

I managed to get away from the plush streets of Sandton where I was staying (aka the richest square mile in Africa) and I headed to Soweto with Adama and Alexi. We had a fabulous day checking out the greater Jo'burg area. Adama was also shooting for her fabulous TV show.

Soweto seemed more like a sleepy retirement village to me, a long way away from the revolutionary town it once was. We visited the famous Vilakazi street- home to both Nelso Mandela and Desmond Tutu. I was particularly excited to visit the former home of Winnie and Nelson Mandela. I couldn't help but feel emotional visiting the famous Mandela House. Check out the pictures. xoxo
