Kabelo's fifth day in Mochudi brings a touch of winter rain, a slow walk through the morning market, fresh magwinya from a street vendor, and a quiet hour at the Phuthadikobo Museum's silkscreen workshop. He also checks in on the town's big football news, weighs the cost of a simple life against the price of the road ahead, and starts to plan his exit towards the Makgadikgadi pans and the Okavango Delta. ☕ Enjoying the show?
