hello again

i give it another try! honestly, recently i had big problems uploading new stories! problems? no it simply didn't work. the last 'test' message i tried 3 times before it succeeded.

well, back to my story. i have done a lot of traveling while i did not share anything with you. i was in cape town, went to the dessert of namibia and also spend some time in the centre of south africa - the freestate! people there are different - that is for sure. unfortunately i do not have the time to go into detail but today i visited a big farm owned by white guys. they had hundreds of cettle explained to me how much profit they make per cow. 3 black maids were only there for the house... you know, cleaning, cooking, babysitting. on top they had to garden boys and approx. 20 working for them on the field. we had 3 meals a day every time heaps of meat, even early in the morning for breakfast.
today was payday for the black and i couldn't believe it. these poor buggers earn...

are you sitting?

watch out...


20 Rand a day! That equals 2,5€ a day!!!!!!!!!!!
oh ja and 3 meals a day consisting of millypap, pumpkin or other funny vergies - no meat. but water as much as they want.

on top, the farmer told me, how badly he is struggling and he can hardly feed his family. i normally tried to stay out of pollitics but sorry this is nothing better than modern slaves!!

it was quite shocking for me!


ok, that's why i will leave this wonderful country tomorrow! thursday morning i will finally land in hamburg again!

tot siens.
