We South Africans only realize how amazingly privileged we are once we start traveling.

Overall, all of the African countries have immense beauty…I am still in awe and I’ve decided to travel Africa more because of all it’s natural beauty and the warmth of my people. I’m thoroughly enjoying African Americans discovering the beauty of Africa.

Absolutely true. Almost every foreign country I have been to has not matched what we have here. I loved living in Europe for a stint, enjoyed the cleanliness and the order, but it it took a long time to adjust to it, and coming home was always something one looked forward to. Nowhere else matched being at home, warts and all.

Hi Ashely the reason ur companion was able to recognise and speak other languages is that, South African languages are highly mutually intelligible... A Zulu person understands basic Xhosa A Sotho person understands basic Tswana etc and can have conversation... So u see that u don't have to know all languages U only need Zulu, Sotho and English to survive in South Africa in my opinion 👍

As a black South African, I'm always glad whenever my country is represented well. I'm happy you have found a space for yourself and built a community. I hope more people like you realize there's a lot of opportunity here, and it's not the grotesque place that the media always tries to portray. With that being said, I have to add that one has to be extremely intelligent about how they move and the places they go here. It sounds like your friends were of great help to you. It's important to also note that the white-led Cape Town (and Western Cape) government is extremely apt when it comes to hiding the problems of this city from travelers; problems that affect only black and brown people. Most of the wealth is concentrated in a 15km radius, with houses being strategically built along the main routes to the airport and other tourist destinations to mask the huge disparities in living conditions. You also mention that a lot of wealth from America and Europe is invested in Cape Town. Where is all the wealth and wealth-generating opportunities for black people? Cape Town is surrounded by wine farms. I can bet my left lung that almost 100% of those farms are white-owned. When people speak of racism, they are mostly referring to disparities in wealth, opportunities and access to resources. If businesses are white-owned, I guarantee management is also white, middle management is white, with black faces playing the role of cog and service. You spoke beautifully about having intelligent conversations with South African friends about geo-politics. I got the impression that some of the above issues might have been glossed over. It's important that we foster the right conversations about this place because that will attract the type of minds that can help us fix our issues. I do appreciate the beautiful message you have created for your followers.

We do not need such comments from people who don't want to understand the dynamics in South Agrica. Such comments do not help us here country. Crime happens in all major cities. I am from Cape Town but I do not feel safe driving in Johannesburg for instance.

Racism is embeded in CT it will always stick its ugly head under that carpet where the denialists always hide it. Tourists are highly respected because they bring in money. Locals are mistreated n looked down upon. Thes movements that are calling for CT to exit SA thats furthur colonisation. Restaurants n farms have stoped employing locals but cheap Zimbabwean labour. Those are selfish ugly tendancies. You complain about AAmericans talking about SA you say nothing about rich racist lobbyists who travelled around the world spreading white genocide propaganda around 2018 -2019. I was borrn in WC it still the strong hold of suttle racism. People will come n see n experience these ugly tendancies n they will go n talk. The fact that thes still racial setlement groupings in affluent suburbs thats racism without explaining.

I’ve been to Capetown on several occasions and the gap between the haves and the have nots is so wide you can visit there several times and not notice or experience it. It also depends on how well you can connect with the locals there. Long St in the Center of Capetown at night, is very different from Victoria Dr in Camps Bay the beach area. Try visiting places like Phillipi East, Mitchell Plains and Khyalitia. That’s where you will see the survivors of apartheid’s injustice. There’s plenty of people in need in those areas of Capetown. Sure they need money, but most importantly they need to see hope. I took a family to the mall to buy shoes for a teenager girl. I was so moved by this one ten year old child who when she saw an escalator for the first time, her eyes widened and she froze. I had to hold her hand to get her on and ride it down. Same thing happened at the elevator. “Thank You!” for sharing ❤️🖤💚

We are really thinking about leaving Germany and retiring to Cape town as our pocketbook will allow it after retirement. One thing you did not mention is if you are renting our buying a house/flat. I love the area of Green Point and Seaview, though those could be more expensive. Which did you choose and what is the cost if you have bought property.

To be smart u need to pay attention on the Free trade deals already taking place in Africa. Have a business in Jozi, cape, Durban then Zanzibar, Nairobi, to Egypt to Morrocco to Tunisia to Lagos and Senegal is the thing that can make u monies. Don't limit yourself to one City spread your wings.

The only way to really understand SA history is to google-image maps - from the very oldest (Portuguese, 1497) to the most recent (10 provinces) - to see how it all developed (& jot down dates and notes for tours etc.), and to follow who was actually where, and when? You'll see the Dutch names (from 1652), like Bosmansland, Hottentots' Holland, Griqualand... these being part of the early Cape Town expansion... from the cold, dangerous Atlantic Ocean - myths of ghost ships, The Flying Dutchman - to Cape-Malay cuisine, Dutch gables in the architecture, and the iconic windmills.. into the scrubby desert areas. Then came the arrival of the British (1795), with the 1820 Settlers, border zones, & cattle-raids at the Fish River/Transkei Wild Coast, which led to the setting up of East London and Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Province. Then, also on the Indian Ocean side, there were the Mfekwane Wars (1815-1840) when the Zulus went expansionist: Mfekwane (the Crushing); Dfekwane (the Scattering); Lfekwane (the Consolidation [roughly into the Homeland areas])... into the tail-end of which the Dutch Voortrekkers moved and opened up the Interior, settling and farming for just about 50 years, until diamonds and gold were discovered in the Orange Free state and the Transvaal, respectively, leading to the Anglo-Boer wars (+- 1900). Also, Indians arrived in Durban - to work on the sugar-cane plantations - in 1860. Then came the C20th! So much history to discover, if you're open to earnest and honest enquiry. Enjoy your adventures and take care.

I just hate that South Africa is set up for foreigners to came here and enjoy what the local people cannot.. Cape town you have the Europeans enjoying the best places..black and colourds are left in the slums..i know indians in their own community tried to open a small business and needed approval .they were turned down few months later You had foreigners opening up a business there.. Honestly this Land we Call South Africa has been giving it's best to people who are not born here ..The ANC has sold the people out ..we need a South Africa where the people get to enjoy the land...Chris Hani Vision Sadly killed by the Very ones in Power today

Cape Town is more classist than racist. Unfortunately class and race are often intertwined in South Africa.

Thank you Khaya for this perspective. This so something I’m learning more about as a repatriate to The Continent. Classism is a very real thing.

Everybody should visit Cape town. It's like Rio. The thing is to go at Xmas time. It's a total scrum. People pull in. It's insane. Busier than Spain. You got weird traffic jams. To the beach. My favourite is walking at night on the promenade. 10 30 still light

We ran the promenade during the morning. Didn’t see much with the fog, but it sure was a workout.
