About Me

My photo
I am a final year Media Studies major, French minor, at the University of Botswana. I grew up in a multicultural home in Botswana with a Swati mother and a Motswana father. Unfortunately, growing up in the quickly modernizing city of Gaborone, I found that my parents raised us in a western fashion so as we adapt to the world around us, sans any deep rooted traditions. As a child my favorite thing to do was go to weddings and eat all the traditional food that I was never afforded in our "neutral" home. Hence the establishment of this blog. I hope I can help another fellow un-motswana Motswana!
