South Africa trip a learning experience for Theron
June 21st, 2011 - 7:31 am ICT by IANSLondon, June 21 (IANS) Charlize Theron suffered from diarrhoea during a seven-day trip to South Africa. However, the actress described it as a grounding and rewarding experience.
Theron - born in Benoni in Transvaal province - set up her own organisation, the Africa Outreach Project, which focuses on sex education and HIV/AIDS prevention in her native country.
“I’m sitting on a toilet for seven days with diarrhoea. But it’s the thing that puts everything into perspective. There’s a part of me that will always be the South African who knows and realises how unbelievably fortunate I have been,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted the 35-year-old as saying.
