13 things every Tembisan should know

The same way you know what is in your wardrobe and on your phone. This is not to say you should go around with a pen and paper every time you walk around, just so you can note everything you see in Tembisa, but you should just know.

Let’s say your best friend, who lives somewhere else, calls you in the middle of the night asking for directions to your house while at a popular place in Tembisa.

If you don’t know how to direct them, don’t you think it would be embarrassing? Well, I’m here to make sure that does not happen.

Here are a few of the things you should know about your Tembisa:

•  Taxi signs – it might sound silly at first, but trust me you should know all the signs, both local and to town.
•  Directions – Tembisa has two popular main roads, namely Straight Line and Main Line. From these two roads, you should know how to direct anyone to anywhere.
•  Sections – Nothing is as embarrassing as not knowing the sections and where they are actually situated in Tembisa.
•  Chilling spots – some cater for the younger crowd, while others cater for adults (or should I say matured?). Know them!
•  Languages – learn most of the languages spoken in Tembisa so you don’t have to struggle to communicate.
•  Healthcare facilities – I do not need to remind you how important this is.
•  Schools – how many high schools and primary schools are in Tembisa? I know you are probably counting right now.
•  Malls – you need to know where to shop and for what.
•  Churches – if you like going to church, it might be good for you to know which ones are more or less close.
•  Salons and Barber shops – they are all over, every corner and section.
•  Police stations – Rabasotho is not the only police station in Tembisa.
•  Municipal offices.
