Our little host sister, with sad eyes during our goodbyes. Pelisa's mother died last November, and her father when she was little, so she now lives with her grandparents, our hosts. She has no siblings, and she was so happy to befriend all of us and show us off to her friends. Pelisa taught us words and songs in Xhosa, and confided in us. We were all sad to part - probably the hardest goodbye we had throughout the trip.
