ONE DAY ONE DAY… VOLUME TIMZELA

When I was young I had lot of fun, but I guess we cant stay young for ever.
When I’m at work I used to hide when seeing someone I know coz sex work its illegal in South Africa.
I use to go to church when I was young and I was good at school, I was a hard worker at school for a better education and have bright future,
weekends. It was good and the was much money but the main challenge was the police that was harassing and arresting us.
But when life goes on I changed my life because of stage and friends I was having, I stated drinking beer, going to the taven and fall in love with different boys.
I got arrested for several times and I decided to quit working on the streets and only worked on my personal space, I’m also working as a peer educator and I already have someone whom I’m in love with.
I got my self at sex work industry as I was looking for money to take care of myself coz I like to look good on

Elim village in Limpopo province were I grew up and still live. 4. Hair styles are critical in our line of business to attract customers. 5. Sex work involves lots of health issues so clinics are one of our nightmares coz of the treatment we get as sex workers, e.g. being asked to come with your partner before getting help while they know its impossible for me to come with a client.   6. Castle lite changed my life from fantasy to reality 7. This space near Beit Bridge looks like one I used to work in at Makhado. 8.
