This year we have decided to live our motto that “Small things matter”. During our extensive travels in Africa and closer to home, South Africa, we have seen many scenes that makes you stop and say a little prayer saying thank you for what we have back home!<\/span><\/p>\n


\nSince the beginnings of our travels, when I was still a child, growing through my teenage years, as a young adult and even now, I’ve always had toys in the car to keep me busy. The only difference was that the toys became more and more expensive the older I got, because I was privileged like that.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nWhen you travel through different sections of the continent you very quickly realize just how fortunate you are and that the fluffy toy you wanted to buy from a National park’s curio shop, was in actual fact not necessary. You thoughts then takes you back to the children playing soccer with elephant dung in the village that you have past 100km ago. You think about the happy children who was having a boat races with their makeshift boats out of little leaves and bamboo sticks while you were sitting on the deck of a lodge, sipping on that sundowner drink. Or what about the girls walking around with their “dolls” made our of bark that you saw having a tea party and talking among themselves next to the road.
\nThese scenes are real. These are the signs of the more than 3+ million orphaned children in South Africa who do not know what it feels to have modern toys. They are boys who have never played with little cars and girls who have never gone to sleep with a doll in their arms.
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n
