20 Days Until SA

Some important dates:
- Jan 25: Leave for South Africa
- Jan 26: Start community-based training outside of Pretoria
- Mar 22: Start living in my permanent site (TBD)

Greetings in the 4 languages I may learn:
1. IsiZulu: Sawubona or Sanibonani
2. Sepedi: Dumela
3. TshiVenda: Ndaa or Aa
4. XiTsonga: Avuxeni

Unfortunately, I don't even know how to pronounce the language names, let alone the greetings...One step at a time!

Fun Facts:
- South Africa is a little larger than California and Texas.
- South Africa is said to have a "rainbow" of cuisines.
- South Africa has the longest bungee jump (703 ft).
- You can scuba dive with great white sharks in South Africa.
