Saying Goodbye...

Walking along the beachside promenade for the last time...
Enjoying the Botanical Garden for the last time...
Going to the Durban University of Technology for the last time...
Hitting the gym at the university one last time...
Slowly saying goodbye to all the people we met here...

Thank you all for making this semester abroad as great as it was!
Tomorrow it is goodbye Durban...for now!

An intimate afternoon with...Seether!

On Saturday I went to a small Festival near Gateway Theatre of Shopping. The location; Chris Suanders Park is really nice, as the stage is placed on a small lake in the center of an amphitheatre style park.
Although I knew only the last 2 acts, it was a nice afternoon.
Generally there are many nce events in Umhlanga, so if you get the chance, try to spend some time in that area. It is also easily accessible by taking a minibus from Warwick Junction for R12.

The Factory Café

I have been to my first MakerSpace today. It is located in a Café called "The Factory Café" (https://www.facebook.com/thefactorycafe) here in Durban. It includes a Café with great coffee and food being served by great baristas, friendly and helpful in every aspect. But what is even more interesting is the MakerSpace: the back of the Café is open for artists of all caliber and kind. There I have encountered my first live 3D printer and saw a bunch of other interesting works of art in progress or finished. Also several events take place at the venue, including live music, pop-up shops, etc. All in all it is a very nice place to just hang out, get some work done, become creative or simply have a coffee.
