Final comments
I'm actually only going to study in Durban starting from Aug 2002, therefore do not refer to any of the comments above. If there's anybody who has been in Durban or will go there in the future and wants to give tips or exchange ideas you can email me. I'm going there through a programme in Sosiology studies organised by the German University. Jippii!
