Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

I studied abroad for five months in South Africa. This photo was taken on the Wild Coast in a place called Cintsa. We arrived at our hostel just as the sun was setting and walked down to the beach just in time to catch it going down through the mist and evening breeze. Our little bungalow was right next to the beach. Vines and flowers grew all over the walls and every morning we woke up to the noise of a monkey jumping on the roof. This was my first beach trip of the semester, and to be at a warm beautiful beach when back home it was snowing seemed unreal.
