South Africa: The Little Karoo (Route 62)
The Little Karoo
With my friend Ben I made a trip during 5 days trough the south of South Africa.
That region is called the Little Karoo and most of the time we have followed Route 62
The video shots were almost all taken from out of the car so they are not perfect but in that way I try to give the viewer an impression of what I have seen.
Let yourself be pleasantly surprised (as I was)
PS Yea I know it should have been: Oudtshoorn

Brandvlei South Africa
Brandvlei is a small town in the Karoo region of the Northern Cape, South Africa. This is where a 19th-century trekboer called Ou Brand settled. Brand camped at this spot at the Sakrivier, a dry river bed, which only occasionally had water after good rains – and which typically result in flash floods.[2] The settlement was cut in two by such a flood in 1961. After it was recovered, a municipality was formed in 1962.
This Brandvlei is located in the Bushmanland, also known as the Thirst Land, Dorsland in Afrikaans and should not be confused with the Brandvlei south of Worcester in the Western Cape.[3]
This area was once sub-tropical, such as during the Miocene period. Many fossils have that been found in the area back this fact for us. From 1910, the farmers used an irrigation method comparable to one used for thousands of years by the Egyptians. The surface is very flat, and water does not run away easily. This way the rainwater is spread over a larger area and are allowed to sink into the soil. The moisture in the area is enough to farm with crops on a very small scale. Farmers live on these crops once the rains have gone. On the long run, this method is not feasible, as evaporating water leaves behind salt and other minerals. Today this method is no longer used.
This region contains very little vegetation, primarily very low shrubs and yellow grass among a rocky desert kind of landscape. If you travel north from Brandvlei towards Kenhardt, you will pass through a huge landscape of nothingness for the next 200 km and more. During the seasons, many birds flock to the pans, when they contain water, after some rainfall. Temperature above 40 °C is not uncommon.

Makgabeng Farm Lodge
Deep in the heart of the Limpopo province, South Africa, nestled between the ochre cliffs of
the majestic Makgabeng Plateau and her equally impressive neighbour the Blouberg, lies Makgabeng Farm Lodge.

Fynbos
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Fynbos (; Afrikaans pronunciation: [ˈfɛi̯nbos] meaning fine-leaved plants) is a small belt of natural shrubland or heathland vegetation located in the Western Cape and Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa. This area is predominantly winter rainfall coastal and mountainous areas with a Mediterranean climate. The fynbos ecoregion is within the Mediterranean forests, woodlands, and scrub biome. In fields related to biogeography, fynbos is known for its exceptional degree of biodiversity and endemism, consisting about 80% (8,500 fynbos) species of the Cape floral kingdom where nearly 6,000 of them are endemic. This land has faced severe threats and still does, but due to the many economic uses conservation efforts are being made to help restore it.
