I am your Ice Cream Man


There is never enough work or employment for everybody in Mdantsane. Money is earned the hard way by selling ice- cream and candy riding on a bicycle through the city center, the suburbs and along the beach front.
This entails commuting to town everyday, storing your bicycle in a safe place during the night and going back to the township in the evening. A 14 hour day. Sometimes there is the possibility of sleeping at a friends place in town.
