My African Dream



Last night I attended the finale of My African Dream - Botswana's version of 'You've got Talent'. It was a swish affair at the GICC (Gaborone International Convention Centre) with a three-course buffet meal, drinks and, of course talent. Everyone tried incredibly hard and there were a few knock-out performances, including some incredible Beyonce-style dancing by a seven-year-old.


But the winner was this 14 year old boy from Seretse, who sang Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. It was a lovely night and a great opportunity for some young Motswanas to shine on stage.
