During the train ride at Gold Reef City Amusement Park in Johannesburg, I noticed a little girl among a group of students from Limpopo, in the northeast of South Africa. She bore such a striking resemblance to Keshia Knight Pulliam - best known as Rudy Huxtable, the youngest daughter in The Cosby Show - that it felt like I had stepped into a scene from television.
While dining at the Lesedi Cultural Village, north of Johannesburg, I mentioned to the man manning the food counter that he strongly resembled the famous boxer Mike Tyson. Without hesitation, he raised his fists in a playful boxing stance, a gesture that made it clear I was not the first to make the comparison. His reaction, paired with his broad smile, added a moment of lighthearted connection that made the visit even more memorable.
