I enjoyed the beautiful countryside of Nyosini, a small (a few hundred households?) rural village nearby a buzzing Mount Frere, a town set atop a hill of the same name. This Eastern Cape village is the home of a friend of mine and the visit happened to be an excuse to see the province for the first time in my life, and the highlight was the amazing hospitality granted by the home we stayed during most of the visit, and the closeness of family I experienced here is unmatched in memory. Notable and positive mention ought be granted to 3 characters (Lwazi, Bongo, Siya) for reasons I'm too lazy to mention.
