Look what I found broken in my suitcase - someone must have mishandled my luggage somewhat on the bus back from the Kalahari... universe? Interesting... If you don’t know what exactly it is, here’s what google says about it: (paraphrased) “‘The love bow’ - How would you feel about having an arrow shot at your bottom by your future husband? In traditional San culture, when a young man has his eye on an eligible woman, he signals his intention to marry her by doing just this. Fortunately, the special ‘love bow’ he uses is small, and made to bounce off her gently. The girl then has a choice to make - if she loves him, she will pick up the arrow and place it on her heart – but if not, she will leave it lying on the dusty ground.“ Interesting, huh? My friend Yster gave this to me to give to Kether Padme, he said that he’d used one like this on his wife and she had said Yes! Then they both giggled. He said to tell Kether that they loved her, and missed her. #lovebow #cupidsarrow #therealmckoy #traditionalculture #culturalpractice #bushman #san #bowandarrow #kalaharibushmen #myfriendyster #sitwithmeproject #africanamazing
