Well my story is like an essay so this is the short version. I am originally form the UK but my folks moved out to Cape Town when I was 7 yrs old. I moved back to dismal UK at 17 but I still claim SA is my home. There is something about SA that hits the heart, people instantly fall in love with it. Its an amazing place and I would recommend to anyone to visit and travel up the east coast for sure!

Yeah Sarah, I grew up there, had parents who loved traveling and love it myself. So, I've been everywhere in SA. Western Cape, Namaqualand, Great Karoo, Little Karoo, The Kalahari, Southern Cape, Eastern Cape, Free State, Gauteng, Northwest, Northern bushveld, Lowveld, Natal and Transkei.
Some of it I've done by car, some by motorcycle, some by truck and some by bicycle.
With the exception of Gauteng (Johannesburg area), it's all beautiful!
Go check it out.

Yeah, I was born here in Johannesburg and have lived here my whole life. Except if you call studying overseas for 7 months living, lol! Otherwise I have also been to other places around the country such as Kroonstad, Bethlehem, Durban, Cape Town, Drakensburg, Saabie, Graskop, Wagonsdrift & Parys:-) What about yourself?

Hey Sarah. With that surname, aren't you from SA? I grew up there too, also in the best province, KZN... but love the whole country. Been in the UK now for 3 years, but heading back, as SA has so much to offer that has been lost in Europe.....

Gangsters Paradise is entertaining and you could watch the fires in Kayelitsha (fanned by the howling antarctic gales called the Cape (spin) Doctor) and there's a big hole in Kimberley.
