#ilovebotswana ensemble makes it rain in Berlin

I have watched traditional dance all my life. But two hours later I realised that had I missed this show, it would have been the biggest mistake of my travelling career because it turned out to be the greatest Botswana production ever staged anywhere in the world.

From the airport we were whisked away, against our will, straight to the Messedum, the venue of the ITB Berlin Opening Night hosted by Botswana. The Botswana Tourism Organisation (BTO) representative, Cynthia Mothelesi, our host in Berlin, was probably on the tip of, “I know you are tired but you will thank me later because you must watch this!”
