FORMER Miss Universe and current SA IT girl Zozibini Tunzi, 27, is back in South Africa and hopes to spend the next few weeks enjoying some much-needed rest.

Earlier this week, Tunzi basked in the KwaZulu-Natal sunshine when she spent time in St Lucia.

“When I got to KZN, I was actually panicked at first when I lost my internet connection. And then, when I found out about the wildlife, I was a little scared. But, it really has been so refreshing and one of the most calming times that I’ve had. I came to enjoy not having the internet and a strong phone connection. It forces you to relax. I love the scenery.

“The weather is fantastic. I wish I could take it everywhere. I enjoyed the wildlife, nature, and just being able to connect in that way has been fantastic.

“I definitely will be taking a breather. It has been a very tough year and a half, not only for me but for a lot of people, so it will be very nice to go somewhere to relax,” she said.

Tunzi’s must-have travel essentials include her phone “to take loads and loads of photos for memories”, her hydrating serum for her face and a “banging wardrobe”.

Tunzi, who plans to venture into the music and TV industry, wants to travel in the African continent before visiting other destinations.

“I haven’t been to my own continent to see all of these spaces. I would love to visit Kenya and Ghana.

“I would also love to see India for its culture. I feel like they have such a strong sense of culture, and it would be very nice to experience that.

“There are so many places I want to tick off my bucket list, so we will just go one at a time," she said.
