I stayed with Noma and her family in December 2017. It was one of the best experiences I had during my time in South Africa. Noma and her family showed me their beautiful village and explained a lot to me about the Xhosa traditions and life in the Eastern Cape. They never got tired of answering my countless questions. We had meals and celebrations with family and friends, did hikes to other villages to explore more parts of the beautiful region and explored forests and rivers nearby. The food was delicious. I even tried traditional beer - umqombothi! Thanks Noma again for the marvelous time.

Noma is the kind of host you would want for an immersive experience. She does the work to prepare visitors to be culturally competent before travelling. She is adventurous and open. My experience in the Eastern Cape was more than a vacation; it was an opportunity to learn and connect with a place I am not from. I made memories and friends I will have forever. Thank you Noma
