In Cape Town I bought a Northern Sotho–English dictionary,[1] and used it
to improve the article about the Northern Sotho language a bit. I'm very
far from being an expert however, so if you know anybody who knows this
language well, please point them to the many questions on the talk page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Northern_Sotho_language .

[1] I really, really love dictionaries.

Great idea Romaine!

I am now working on Esperanto Wikivoyage (in Incubator), mostly to make it
fully working. Now I am finishing Europe and immediately after that I will
focus on Africa (not only for the Africagap and to help our colleagues but
also to support tourism and facilitate meetings in Africa).

See you online!

about one of the species of fish we saw at the opening party in the
Two Oceans Aquarium.
