Name of Shop: Homeware and souvenir shops
What To Buy: South Africans love candles - as you will have soon realised after you've eaten in a few restaurants - you need a torch in some of them to read the menu! If candlelight appeals to you, you could do worse than take a few home with you to remind you of your South African holiday. You'll certainly find plenty to choose from - from simple little blocks printed with zebra stripes and leopard spots to enormous great things that will burn for hours - and weigh a ton in your suitcase or backpack. I liked these little tealight holders, made of wood and with a little bit of beaded trimming, they were African in their appearance as well as being lightweight in my luggage, and the candle itself can be replaced, making for a much more long-lasting souvenir that brings a little touch of South Africa to my home.
What To Pay: From just about $3-4 up ... and up.
