My flight from Amsterdam to Cape Town included about 75 U.S. college students who were participating in a"voluntourism" program. As best I could gather, these kiddos were heading into the townships of the Western Cape for a week, although they didn't seem clear on what kind of volunteer work, exactly, they would be doing there. One girl emphasized the term, "on-site training," but when I asked her what that meant, she didn't seem to know. Of the 75 students, I would estimate that 73 were girls. I literally saw two (very excited) dudes.
The recurring conversation between girls in the customs line:
Question #1: What school are you from?
Question #2: Oh really? What sorority?
Go on, sisters.
(Note: These people were not on my flight.)
