The City of one's birth
#29
I was born in Kraaifontein, a small town wedged between Durbanville and Bellville in the Western Cape. Our one and only claim to fame was that we could see both the Taal Monument in Paarl and Table Mountain from the high points in the town (read bridges...).

I never fit in there - was too English for an Afrikaans town, and must admit that I was happy to leave. Now that I have lived up here for so long I find I do not really fit in with South Africans back home. I go back less and less and only to see my mom.

My heart is now here in Europe, though not necessarily tied to Ireland.
