JSbu gives his home-town Mandini some love

Loading player...
KwaZulu- Natal is known for a lot of things, amongst them yet not limited to: South Africa’s playground, the Kingdom of the Zulu’s, the melting pot of South Africa.

KZN is also known for its envious weather, with many sharing that the province simply has one season all year around, summer. Then there are the pristine beaches, the majestic Drakensberg Mountains and temperate Midlands while to the South there await superb golf courses, fishing spots and miles of subtropical coastline.

JSbu who now enjoys city living in Umhlanga, Durban shares that there is just something about his hometown that he grew up in that he still misses so incredibly. In Mandini, JSbu lived a much simplier life with his family, his days were pre-occupied by the herding of farm animals and the milking of cows.
