Tshatshingo Potholes

Tshatshingo potholes are in Northern South Africa. The water comes in from the Tshi rocks River. Possibly the scariest natural water feature I have encountered.
This giant hole has no trace of life in it. Nobody knows were the water goes when it falls into the giant pot.

The are a few rock pools before the giant pothole. The water is very clear when it is not rainy season. And you also have the opportunity to cliff jump if you are brave enough.
People have accidentally fell in and unfortunately bodies are never retrieved. Even divers don't like this place.

Travel to Makwarani village soon in Vhembe and visit the Tshatshingo potholes. Make sure to bring your swimming gear and a picnic basket.

The weekends are when the places comes to live as music revelers come out to picnic in the shades and have a pool in the rock pools. During the week you will find local villagers doing their laundry in the river.

Morocco - A country I am certain to never return to.

Morocco is a North African country characterized by mountain regions, desert, and a lengthy coastline from the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Morocco is a monarchy where the royal family has full control over the government. Rabat is the capital city, but Casablanca is the largest city. Chances are your flights will fly into Casablanca as they have the larger airport and that is cheaper than flying into other airports. Like any other North African country, you will learn or you most probably know about the history of the Arabs in Morocco. Most people assume north Africans are Arabs. There are no Arabs in Africa. There are descendants of Arabs, but Moroccans are the Berber or Amazirgh people. Also, talking about the Amazirgh can offend some people the same way you cannot talk about Western Sahara. 93% of Moroccans are religious and the majority are practicing Sunni Muslims. I spent the last few days of Ramadan in Morocco in 2017, the interesting thing ab...
