Over almost a decade, people have continually asked why I return to South Africa each year. The answer is simple... because I have made relationships in South Africa. There are people there that I, my husband and my children call FAMILY. 

Building these relationships has given us access to places that we would normally not have and enriched our experiences around indigenous practices in invaluable ways. We want to offer you an opportunity to experience the various dynamics and cultures of South Africa in an authentic way so that you can build relationship with the continent as well.

Is SANKOFA SA - THE GATHERING for YOU? If it is, don't delay in making your down payment and registering. This will be an intimate gathering... there are ONLY FIVE SPACES AVAILABLE!
