After a day of relaxation at Cintsa, Moni and I loaded up the hire car and sped off into the Transkei. We crossed the legendary Kei river and stepped into a time-warp -- many of the people here live a traditional African life, free from technology, advertising, or consumerism. To walk in the Transkei is to glimpse an uncluttered life, one based on subsistence rather than excess. We ended up in the coastal region of Mpande, which is on the northern half of the Transkei coast. Moni was thrilled to be back in her childhood dreamland, and Kit was stoked too!
