点评:I booked a tour one day before I planned to do it. I was on a tight schedule and not sure if the booking was accepted. Mzu sent a confirmation immediately and we agrred on the pick up point in Gardens. The next morning I got an early warning that he was delayed by a couple of minutes. -> Very reliable guy!
We drove to Langa. On our way he explained a lot of historical facts, gave advive of proper (respectful) behaviour, taught som Xhosa and made me feel quite comfortable. I was lucky that he did the tour with me as only participant.
In Langa we started by visiting the community centre (with different handicrafts being presented). From there we walked through different neighbourhoods and visited shops, galleries, residential areas, gardens, a museum, social centres and many other places. Within half a day I've got a good impression of living in an old township (100 years plus), talked to many people and learned to know that living in a Township is hard but diverse (social strata) and not always in sorrow. -> I feared that my presence could be artifical and not welcomed. Instead it was a highlight of my trip to South Africa. I can strongly recommend it!
翻译:我在计划旅行的前一天预订了一次旅行。我的时间很紧,不确定预订是否被接受。Mzu 立即发送了确认信息,我们同意在 Gardens 的接送点上车。第二天早上,我提前收到警告,说他迟到了几分钟。-> 非常可靠的人!
我们开车去了 Langa。在路上,他讲解了很多历史事实,建议了正确的(尊重的)行为,教了一些科萨语,让我感觉很舒服。我很幸运,他只带我参加了这次旅行,我是唯一的参与者。
在 Langa,我们首先参观了社区中心(展示了不同的手工艺品)。从那里,我们穿过不同的街区,参观了商店、画廊、住宅区、花园、博物馆、社会中心和许多其他地方。在半天的时间里,我对生活在一个古老的小镇(100 多年)有了很好的印象,与很多人交谈,了解到生活在小镇虽然艰难,但多元化(社会阶层),并不总是悲伤。 -> 我担心我的出现会显得做作,不受欢迎。相反,这是我南非之行的一大亮点。我强烈推荐它!
