So the festivities have come to an end and you’ve hopefully found some time to relax, but you’re most likely too broke to afford outings. Phumlani S Langa gives you low-cost events to take you into the year.

JOBURG

OUTDOOR ACTIVITY

Walter Sisulu National Botanical Gardens

Until February 28, from 8am
