While my recent trip to South Africa was primarily for work, I couldn’t spend a week there and not do some touristy things!
The absolute highlight of the trip was being eaten by a lion!
If you’re in Joburg, visit Lion Park – an amazing place.
Other highlights included….
I went up Table Mountain.
I saw Robbin Island from Signal Hill.
I visited the Apartheid Museum.
I used Untappd to check in to some great South African beers & ciders.
I discovered just how well used SMS is in South Africa.
Want to know how big SMS is in South Africa? http://t.co/M5mLWz7

As well as learning about Africa’s mobile movie scene – including feature films shot entirely on mobile.
I found a phone / taser.
This "phone" is a multi-shock taser. Yours for ~60. Shocking! http://t.co/WKzJX6i

And I saw some great hotel lighting UE.
Every single hotel room should have light switches like this #UI #UX #DesignOfEverydayThings http://t.co/R4GMrHS

South Africa was an amazing place to visit. Friendly people, beautiful scenery, and great beer. I hope I can go back there on a proper holiday soon.
haha – this was awesome – especially the Lions part
