More on Bulungula

The fact that Bulungula is 40% owned by the surrounding Nqileni village and its embedded in the village, rather than trying to keep seperate from it, is part of of what makes it different from the normal backpacker experience. Its also got a beautiful location, right on the beach in an isolated part of the coast, and its done with a lot of creativity and attention to detail - from the windmill power generator via the murals to the amazing and terrifying rocket showers (add a half a teapot of parafin to the end of a long pipe, set it onlight and you roar your way to a lot of hot water).


I went for a long walk up and down the green hills alongside the coast today - here are a couple of photos from it
