exploring Khayelitsha

We didn't spend much time there. The guy who rented them the house last year, Xolani, was not there. But we are definitely going back there. The Khayelitsha crafts market is just across the street. We went there today, but we didn't have any money with us.
We also went to a nearby church where a Home Management Training Centre for women was established last year. Basically, unemployed women receive training there to become domestic workers. It's kind of sad.. they will be working for rich white people..
We were taken around the premises and saw the women having the training sessions (cooking, cleaning, sewing etc.). Next week they will cook dinner for potential employers - we were also invited.
