It is this exposure to people who love their land, their ways, their history and traditions; people who proudly share the simplicity of all they are and know, that dissolves misperceptions, labels, and opens the heart to the rich depth and broadness of African ways. Paul would like all people, and especially young South Africans, to experience this taste of Africa.
