At first I pinched myself I thought I was dreaming but it was an early morning on Saturday the birds were singing a solo song I was so happy and overwhelmed to find out that I was about to travel to Swaziland to do the job that I love being a photographer. Swaziland is a beautiful small country that has beautiful huge mountains and it has lot of nature and my arrival in Swaziland was such a joy to the citizens of Swaziland indeed there are good devoted citizens they showed me love told me that in Swaziland it is still ruled by a chief it doesn't have president I learned alot about their culture, religion and their dressing sense I had to do some nice activities there. But the most thing that I have enjoyed is taking pictures while there were busy dancing and you can actual see their faces were full of joy and happiness to see a camera. I took lot of pictures the time we were just driving around Swaziland pictures of the nature ,animals ,bridges and they have beautiful hotels. The main reason why I went to Swaziland is because the boys were going for initiation school and the king was taking a 12 wife ending someone in the family so I went there to take pictures of their culture and I wrote something about how is the process and culture in Swaziland they still live the state of a man is bigger than the woman not like other countries while its 50/50. In an nutshell I enjoyed myself alot it was a good experience now I know many cultures besides mine and I'm so grateful for the experience and knowledge.
