Precious Travel Pic: Your Take?

Written by Tashi from the blog Tashi's TV on 03 Aug 2009
Favourite this post


Check this out ... a new travelogue reality show called Precious Africa's starting on SABC1 soon.

It's hosted by Precious Kofi who's gone on a trip through Africa to see the sights and meet peeps who live in different countries - she moves in with them, hangs out and basically lives their lives before heading off somewhere else.

I've been snooping for more about it and asked if Precious could send us some travel pics. She did and sent through two.

This one ...

precious_africa_5

AND this one, taken in Uganda ....

precious_africa_3

- which freaked me out 'cos it was the last thing I was expecting. I don't know what I was expecting but I think I imagined we'd get vibey scenes, out and about, maybe a party on the go or something so I was like "oookay."

I've found it so interesting and been staring at it trying to read her expression.  The expression in her eyes - I can't work out what it is exactly - and also, her smile - mixed with her thumbs-up it's as if it's saying so much yet it's tricky to say exactly what.

Any thoughts on it?



The show's starting on Tuesday, 25 August at 21h00.

LOL Felfel, nkosi yam!!!!

Morning beautiful Bloggers,

I luv this girl so much. Im sure her mom is proud of her. She is such a unique child. I neva heared something bad about her. I so wish she can stay like that child & teach other kids.

About the fotos:

1st one is so real & spot-on. I also like the girl whose caring a baby (i just wonder, is she a mother?) If yes, shame she luks young 2 b a mum. Oh yes she has a model face. 

2nd pic, Thats Uganda baby, they get training at the age of 6 (I can imagine my son, practising how to shoot-to-kill as babu Bheki Cele said).

@Heartbreaker

Ladygaga where do u think she gon get a bra living in a thatched hut like that???? those people are beyond poor, and it has been said that they can't even afford sanitary towels, some use newspaper or cloth, so a bra would be a luxury.

lady gaga
06 Aug 2009 08:52

Oooh no felfel now u just made me sad, its things like this i dnt like hearing. i hope the show wnt show or tell us of such things,just the good stuff cause really its heartbreaking!!!!

felfel
06 Aug 2009 09:09

Didn't mean to make u feel sad just wanted to higlight something.
I doubt the show will deliberately touch on their plight, i think its more about the different cultures and colourful lifestyles, though u can't avoid to see the poverty cos its right there in their eyes.

Its not only them who can't afford such, even here in Mzantsi we have such a problem and it has been long proposed that the Education Dept. together with the Health Dept. should make sanitary towels available in schools for young gals especially in rural areas cos they also use newspapers, but unfortunately the teachers take for themselves and deprive the gals.......aaahh humans.

Ms personality
06 Aug 2009 09:39

1st  pic looks beautiful but why nobody has commented on the small child standing in front ...........SHAME.

2nd pic , yhooo i would also pull the pretence smile aruond those soldiers..........shuu'

aiyi ..........Precios you are so brave girl.

lady gaga
06 Aug 2009 09:40

eish felfel i know u mean well but sometimes the truth hurts yazi!!!

i hope and pray that someday all this poverty will end and everyone will be happy (did i just say that,wow im a changed person) thanx felfel...lol
