You Know You're In South Africa When...

You Know You're In SOUTH AFRICA When...

you have some version of rice and beef once a day.

you see someone wearing something cute and ask, “is that from Mr. Price?” (as said by Josh).

you wake up in the morning unsure if it is raining or just the waterfall behind your room.

you attempt to put peanut butter on anything and everything and when there isn’t a jar on the table, you get nearly have a panic attack.

you hike a mountain, see the sun rise over the ocean, or go zip lining through the rain forest on an average saturday.

you become addicted to monopoly deal. 

every bus ride is a dance party and you look back to find everyone singing to the most random songs.

you look around an hour and a half later to find three- fourths of the bus asleep.

you eat chocolate often, unshamefully a bar at a time.

you get on facebook hoping your friend in the chalet next to you is on so you can find out what he or she is up to. 

its not a big deal if there is a spider or some other nasty bug in the shower and you just keep an eye on it while proceeding to shower.

 

going to bed at 11pm is late and you swear you will never go to bed that “late” again.

you wonder how you ever survived without having tea time twice a day... an excellent excuse to have more instant coffee or hot chocolate (its not like you haven’t already had four cups already that day) and a muffin, cookie, or on a really good day, a cinnamon roll.  

the question “are you doing Jillian?” is asked every night and actually means are you going to the Jillian Michael's workout video.

you hear screams and wonder what the monkeys did this time. 

you are walking along the road, see a car approaching, and have to think really hard about which side of the road you should run to.

an appropriate response to every question or comment is “Yebo!”

you feel encouraged by the people around you who have come to be your family :)
