‘ROYAL BLOOD’ : Princess also a Fulbright scholar

[Jenee]

Red and Black

Vusani Tshivhase is a Fulbright scholar who happens to be the daughter of a king. "I kind of come from a royal family," said the health promotion major. "In a way, I've got royal blood flowing in my veins."

Tshivhase's father is king of the Venda tribe in a rural corner of northeast corner of South Africa.

"We do have — I guess you could call it a palace.  It's not like the Buckingham Palace — it's more traditional."

Cool story :)

This quote really highlighted the differences between cultures:

Tshivhase said some of the unusual things she eats at home include mopane worms, termites, and grasshoppers.

"You go with a jar. You have to fill up a jar — not a small one, a big one," she said. "To have a good catch you have to have a big jar full of grasshoppers. You take it home and it's a snack."
