On Thursday, 25 January of this year, I finally re-
ceived my student visa at the South African consul-
ate in Mauritius, to enable me to join my classmates
for the Masters in Management, Innovation studies
program at the Wits Business School. Even though
this was not my first visit to South Africa, I was
incredibly excited, as I was finally going to be en-
