South African people have this warm friendly hospitality about them, thus making it easy for us to welcome others.Our diverse culture comes with exceptionally good food and wine.
We have the infrastructure to host events all round inland and along the coast.
As a developing country we learning as we going along, with that discovering how much uniqueness we have to offer.
South Africa on the whole has so much to offer but most of it is still untapped! The FIFA World Cup is a brilliant example of what this country and its people can achieve when working together. We now have the infrastructure to host other major sporting events - so let the bidding continue! We can now host more international music concerts or even rallies because we have the stadiums that can be used and generate revenue - what's stopping us from hosting Live Aid for example. We have the facilities to arrange an intimate wedding on a secluded beach or a mind blowing bush safari for international dignitaries.

Climb Every Mountain
At the age of 36 ten years after having me she was with child and had another baby boy called Antonio.He was with us for tree months and then died in a tragic gas accident in our house. The accident also left my mom in a coma for a month and the day she walked out the hospital the doctors called her the walking miracle.
Not long after that she was faced with divorce as my then alcoholic father totally let go and lost control of himself. This was hard on all of us. A year or two after, I was in my teens and broke the news to her that I am gay and want to live my life as a woman...I know that the news hit her hard but she took it and never gave up on me. Years later she had to face another mountain saving me from a ten year drug addiction that broke us both as she had to implement tough love to save her son. She is a real life testimony of a praying mother...today I'm not only free from drugs but I found my true identity in Christ, and this all because she climbed ever mountain praying and trusting!!!
#Thanks to the Vote 4 Table Mountain Campaign for making it possible !!!
