Lately, I've been listening to radio stations via the internet from countries such as Japan, England, and especially South Africa. When I lived in Washington, D.C., I was never without good music, but now that I'm in Columbus, GA, I can't find much here worth listening too. We don't even have jazz! Anyway, listening to radio stations from other countries is interesting to me because I love to see what music is out there. Really, what got me started was a search for a station in South Africa.
I have always wanted to visit South Africa. There is something about the mix of British, Dutch, and Afrian cultures that interests me. Many people there speak English and look like any average caucasion, yet they are living in Africa, a place of wonder any mystery to me. There are few places where you find big, modern, English-speaking cities that have tribal people living in close proximity. How fascinating!
If you are interested in hearing music from somewhere else in the world, you can find it here.
