I'm glad the natives are still keeping their old traditions and culture for the next generations.
Indeed.

The pics are awesome! The fact that you took them makes me wonder what it's like to live near a tribe like this. I assume they are friendly, and don't mind having their pictures taken?
Thanks. Very friendly and hospitable. Very peaceful passive people. Me being from that region and classified "Coloured" means I probably have some Khoisan blood. 😬 so maybe they related to me a bit.
Different cultures is what makes our world beautiful. It always fascinates me seeing how indigenous people live off the land.
Indeed. Thanks for comment

What great captures, @michaeljn. Fantastic heritage to claim - if you can - and preserve.
Thanks :-)
