Pietermaritzburg is the capital of Kwazulu-Natal. Still,
it’s a small city and the locals call it sleepy hollow. Definitely not like
bustling Durban and the town has a much more middle class feel to it (I would
say that PMB is Richmond,VA if Durban is Washington, DC). That’s fine by me as
it means I can go on runs and walk to the stores without problem. Want to see
where I live?
My flat is in a neighborhood called Pelham. It’s
unpretentious, and feels quite comfortable. It’s about 2km from what South
Africans call “The Varsity” otherwise known as the university. I live with my
lovely flatmate Shantel. She’s 24, from Maritzburg and works for an office of
finance.
In my last post I told you a little bit about where I work, but you know what they say…pictures are worth a thousand words.
