South Africa Made Me More Passionate About Life
by:Danya Steele

South Africa made me more passionate about life because everyone there is a passionate person. Absolutely everyone. The professors, the students, the janitors, the cab drivers, the bus conductors, they store clerks, the cats, the dogs…everyone! Sometimes, I was just struck by it all.

This year, 2004, is South Africa’s “10th Anniversary of Democracy” and will be an incredible time to be there. I look forward to returning as soon as I can, and will likely return to UCT (University of Cape Town) for my senior thesis. If you have the opportunity to go – go!!!

I’m glad I decided to come to South Africa far before I’d come to Oxford, because it grounded me in ways that I don’ t believe England – or Germany, or Japan, or any of the other G3 affiliates – would have been able to. Okay, okay, I have written an official novel, now, and don’t know who in the world is still reading by this point, so will just cut it short. I LOVED South Africa, and can’t wait to go back!!!
