    So blessed to see mums enjoying herself we have great respect for our elderly Mark is just truly an South African I don't think our brothers should use African American because they African an all of Africa is theirs. This is really a movie I think the Blantons should make a movie out of this because the movement is so captivating. And it's won't be coming to America is coming home to Africa. Proudly South African. Love the Real South Africa I got my fix still waiting on the full interviews. Much love to the Blantons and our brothers and sisters and our elderly coming home to where they belong. We love all of africa loves you.

    Thank you Mark. Your Heroism has surpassed our expectations. Because now I can call you a real South African. Thank you for putting our country on Map.
    You tapped into the market that was neglected for a very long time. Who thought bringing our African Americans home to S.A. could be something that could be that we can love and cheer up? Nobody, but you eventually did it.
    African Americans must know that South Africa is not their second home but their first, because our forefathers were forcefully stolen from here.
    We want more of you to come and live here in South Africa in the land that was freed by our grandparents from the shackles of apartheid. We want you to come and experience a democracy where we blacks run their own country and not dictated by the Europeans.

    Love the content. Could you guys do a video on the visa and residency process you went through for those in the diaspora that, after traveling to South Africa, may want to pull the trigger and make the move. I know you guys are primarily about travel - but I think it may be helpful for people who are tired of the U.S. and looking to make a move to the continent.

It would be sad to hear them saying that they made a big mistake. Even though the USA's population is 10 × ours, their systems work. I really hope these peoples dreams are realised and they don't want to go back to the US where they are treated like garbage.
