- My wife and I, with our two kids, sold everything and moved from the UK to South Africa in 2019!
In this video, which is the first of a new series, I go through how and why we made a move to South Africa at a time when a lot of young families are leaving. This is an exciting new direction for us as a family and we hope you join us on this new adventure while we make a start at a new life.
#dalereubin #smallholding #southafrica
We have our challenges, but South Africa is really a great country.
Africa is not only a continent. It's something you feel in your soul that can never ever go away.
Absolutely agree!!
I pray I will be coming over soon
@@Audrey-faithlife don't come here again
So true. People will never be able to experience that feeling anywhere else. You have to come to Africa yourself and feel the beat of it's drum.
@@EmiratesViewingCenter what's your problem?
I live in Pretoria, but im from the deep rural areas of Limpopo, not a township but a rural area with natural mountains, rivers, bush and so on, i never values it when i grew up, being a registered nurse, there is a point where i thought of moving to the UK, but looking at these videos about moving to the UK it made me apreciate SA more and i would love to go back to my village and live there some day, its extremely peacefull, green and natural, i guess when u grow older small things actually matters. Wellcome back dude, hopefully all your plans go well.
Thank you Mulalo, what a great comment!
@mulalo 😍
Although you're South African, im still glad that you came here. It makes me happy to see people from other countries move to South Africa. Especially people who are bringing in skills and are going to contribute positively to this country.
I’m thinking about moving there from the US! I’m a singer/songwriter so I’m unsure how to move without being able to get the usual work visa…. But I’d love to contribute positively to the culture 😄
@@HapppyWriting it's my goal to move there when im a full grown adult ! the history is sad but its a broken land like SA that god heals !
@@stevensanchez4739 I’m still in SA, on various tourist visas haha not sure how long I’ll be there but it has great weather and beautiful mountains so maybe a while!
I'm from and living in the UK but sa has my heart and as soon as I turn 18 I'm moving put of here and back home to sa:)
Be very careful what you wish for. You're young and DO NOT understand what you think you are going to.
Katelyn, I'd suggest perhaps you acquire very strong skills in areas of technology, or specialist professions etc. If you have trust fund, by all means you will be safe. South Africa has a shortage of skilled folks and entrepreneurs. If you have some business ideas, by all means you will be successful here. However, without any skills and just high-school diploma it is very difficult because there are many folks with that. Other than these cautions, you are welcome to come home my sister. You will have a different perspective coming from UK.
All foreigners think the same way. But remember that rape and gang rapes is very common in South Africa. Murder is very common with 24000 evey year. Myself and all the people I know all carry firearms everyday. Don't be disillusioned by people saying it is safe.
This is so awesome! Having the boldness to come back and live life in this beautiful country of ours. May your endeavors be blessed! Fellow black south african!
Thank you for commenting Cheryl, you're very kind. I'm excited to be back!
You are South African nje, we welcome you back
@helen heReally uncalled for response, proving that idiots come in all colours.
AyoDrama🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@keithgoddard4192 but he was coming back home. Who makes a vid about coming back home 😌
I thought he’s a non SA
I'm a Nigerian living in France but I tell people and all the White pushing negative stories against SA, you could never get the quality of life you have in SA anywhere else in the world.
The large roads, the large house and terraces, never anywhere
You have clearly never been to Australia mate or New Zealand.
@@MOOSEDOWNUNDER i think he means cost of living
Cost of living in South Africa is a factor in this argument by my brother from Nigeria. It is a fact.
Maybe 24000 murders evey year is a bit of a put off. Or maybe the 100 000 rapes against woman and children. I'm South African and you know nothing about SA.
@@arcane7779 he probably only has been in the good side of SA
Welcome back home! Don’t move again let’s all come together and help solve crime and corruption in our beautiful country so that we can all live peacefully.
YES and YES again!! What a wonderful comment. Thank you so much.
@Ali B don't be so racist now.
😂😂
You have a beautiful country, your neighbour from Botswana.
Welcome back brother let's build this beautiful country of ours
Yes! Love it! I still hold hope for South Africa.
That’s not ur country . Europe is your place of origin
@@donovancollins4752 you're a knob
Lmao 😂😂😂 of ours!! U have balls now I see why y’all getting killed 😶
@@donovancollins4752 True. white people do originate from Europe but the world has become far more advanced by learning from each other and the mindset that we should all go back to where we came from is absurd
yes we have a beautiful country here its really hard to leave 😢
try and leave dear
@@EmiratesViewingCenter why must we leave if we don't want to. I'm staying put I'm already doing my fares hare against crime.
Absolutely, been to Western Cape and Eastern cape. SA is beautiful. If u guys are able to overcome all ur challenges. SA potential is enormous. The challenges are complex, socio-economic...if u do overcome these challenges and harness ur incredible human potential ( blacks, white, indians, coloured etc)
I'm Kenyan, and of the many countries I've visited, I love SA. Despite their issues, I've met some of the best people in my life. A place I regularly visit
Thanks Ruth! SA is a beautiful nation!
I always believe that black south African love their country unconditionally;no matter what; we will definitely die for our country,people will go out go in;they will still find black south African fighting for this country;we don't run away from our problems; our spirits never dies.....white and black south African should come together and fight inequality in this country.....welcome my guy
currently living in the uk at 17 and can understand how lucky we are but i love south africa its got my heart and when im 18-19 im moving in with some of my family there and gonna hope for the best(capetown)
Hayden please do come back . This place will become prosperous as soon as predator nations that keep us enslaved and in bondage leave us alone to take full responsibility by ourselves.
Our country need all of us black and white to make it prosperous.
We that have education and succeeded cannot bleed our nation and chicken out strangely and largely towards those predators that flood our world with terrorists to keep on manipulating us with fear. Thankfully they are on their last legs and panicking as their history is catching up with them.
I bet we with our education can survive off the grid easier in South Africa than anywhere else in the world . Yes because we have resources and alternatives.
I got the same situation and I'm thinking of going back for a year after my a levels
No bra not cape town😭😭try Johannesburg cape got so much gang crimes
Hey! Did you actually move to SA?
@@HapppyWriting I am in sa bra
And crime is rising day by day
People underestimate the value of home and a sense of belonging. I also didn't until I lived as a foreigner. Sure, a first world country will always have its perks but I honestly felt more grounded as a human being when I returned home.
Yes I totally agree. Many countries have everything you need, but nothing you want.
Incredible man, welcome back home. Looking forward to more of your videos, particularly the build.
I truly get your idea, you won't regret it. I helped my best friend build his container home in a farm last year. It's off-grid, has solar panels, rainwater tanks, composting toilet and veggie garden. I always enjoy a visit there and struggle to go back home 😂. I plan to build one for my family in the near future.
Have fun bud.
Amazing! That sounds incredible! Thanks so much for your comment and positivity - it's much appreciated!
Dude I need you with your skills. Can I connect with you on social media perhaps?
May God bless you and your family
Welcome back home! Love to see such stories.
Joining resources is what families are about, instead of the individualistic nonsense.
Hi Dale, thank you for sharing. We moved from Switzerland to this beautiful country 22 years ago with 3 children. Our daughter was 4 months old. We are still in love with this place which is very unique in so many ways. Looking forward to learning more about your exciting journey.
Thank you so much for your comment Mathew. I still have hope for SA!
@@DaleReubin Mathew, don't you have crimes in the UK as well? How about knife attacks, which is a common everyday occurrence in the UK? There is no place in the world where there is zero violence. Mr. Dale, just enjoy peaceful and good life with your family and never listen to such negative voices. As long as you take precautions in everything you do you will be ok. I live in the US and there is violence here too. A jealous or a frustrated next door neighbor can be violent too in any part of the world when such an individual sees prospering. Just pray everyday like everyone else and be at peace with your neighbors and you & the family will be fine just like everyone else. After all you were born in SA and that's where you belong. It's your land too.
Very eye opening . I'm happy for you and your family. I'm black and South African.
Many conservative whites in our country, with perhaps a laager mentality, make such overwhelming noise on the internet about farm murders as if the rest of the population is not having a bigger crime problem more affecting black people disproportionately. I now more realise more than ever that South Africa will survive and even thrive as the wheels are coming off now for the Anglo American Empire. Many off them will want to flock here.
@@hghbryson6821 Crime has reasons for occurring. Crime in the US are equally off the charts. Dont expect to get proper stats on crime in US .
Thousands are selling in cities to run towards the hinterland in order to live off the grid in bracing themselves for the huge inevitable economic collapse that may bring with it war with other nations as well as internal strife and revolution, that's already occurring. You must be blind not to see this unfolding in US.
US always undermined the rest of the world with instability through terrorism, especially the BRICS countries that persued the common objective of crashing the petrodollar scam and the dollar's world reserve currency status. US is not the secure US of 25 years ago. NATO is also not the united force they used to be. Russia and China is not as weak and poor as they used to be 25 years ago. We do have something in common with them. An artificially imposed reserve currency status for the dollar that allowed US to print money to promote war and shunt peace. Things are changing rapidly for those that invested in terror , instability of their adversaries and our manipulation.
The world is changing
@@kwadjoekaya6559 not as bad as here there is crime every where but it's up to the police to serve and protect us. But if they can't protect themselves eish but seriously I got very high hopes for this buatifull country of ours for all that lives in it I will protect anyone that is a victim of crime I'm just a normal citizen but I will protect my fellow human being.
Welcome back home, may you prosper and grow your vision to great success. We are better together, the future is brighter for all.
Fantastic! Thank you Duncan! I agree, we are better together.
Welcome home. Wish you all the best. You are an inspiration and an amazing guy.
Thank you! It's amazing to be back!
Good luck, bootie, i lived in SA for over a decade. So proud that you made the decision that is right for you family 😊
Wow just wanted to say you are an beautiful woman
Bro, welcome. We love you here. You've made the best decision of your life
We did the same went to OZ was perfect but never happy. Came home. Even with political and economic instability l have not regretted heading home. Just went through riots in Durban. Yet still happy inside being home. Been back 8 years.
😲😱

Thank you so much for this story. I am from Russia and I really need to see more videos like this. Because I've been thinking about relocating my family too. Glad that your family made it. Wish you the best!
People who think it's all manna and honey abroad,better wake up and smell the flippen coffee.Being pessimistic towards RSA won't change the fact that there's no place like home.Welcome home Dale and already some of my friends have left UK moving back to RSA!!
Well said.
I was born in South Africa and I lived in the UK for over 20 years and I'm still unhappy here. I visited South Africa 3 times and really loved it! So when I'm considering of relocating and I came across your video, it really helped. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences! I'd love to chat with you about it. Take care 🤗
Hi Nicolette, thanks for your comment! That's amazing, so glad the video helped. Very happy to chat.
Wow im from SOUTH AFRICA and i actually wanted to move to the UK but you've changed my mind 😊😊 but imma see
@@DaleReubin it's a pleasure! :) I'll be in touch soon

Living the dream!! Sounds amazing...
Fab update Dale! Keep them coming! Very interested to see the farm. Great idea to share your fascinating journey :)
Thanks for the positive feedback
I am no South African I’m Australian and I am moving my family to sa ASAP. I hope to have completely moved in by the end of the year. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome! Thanks for your comment, much appreciated!!
All the best in SA, it can be a phenomenal place to live.
@ wonderland I too would like to know what made you decide to go to SA. I am a South African in Australia and have been seriously thinking of going home ( have always considered SA home) for a few years now.
@@noremac4807 I have always missed SA, I love nature and miss what SA offered. I am not a city person so want to reconnect with nature and the African bush. I have tried it here, but do not have the same connection that I feel in SA. I too miss the variety of people and their colourful personalities . In Oz I find life is too restrictive and very boring. How about you?
Love that you have started posting videos again and looks like you are starting an exciting new adventure. Keep the videos coming. Hoping to catch up with you sometime soon again... it’s been way to many years.
Thanks dude - yeah, very excited for the future!
Thank you I know both SA &UK : South Africa is the best I’m from Europe but I have been in Capetown 4 times I love this country the nature people music weather, I will love this place 🌹🇿🇦🇲🇱🔯🇮🇱🕎✡️
That sounds wonderful, I think being self-sufficient and off-grid should be your aim. Being close to your folks is also a gift, to appreciate them while you have them. Be blessed and safe. Welcome home.
Thanks for your comment and your well wishes. We're slowly aiming for total off-grid living but it's quite a large financial outlay to begin with. Hopefully we can get there sooner rather than later.
God help us all and heal us from all the evils of this world and cleans our heart from darkness and filth!
Amen!
Living in South Africa is like having a luxury suite...on the Titanic.
hehehehee.. you're right. ZA will be a third world country in about 10 years.
@@TerryJulianLive It's already third-world.
That's what I'm thinking too out of all the countries he picked south africa. car jackings and robberies, white farmers being butchered, and electricity that is shut down every few weeks for half a day. How can you choose to move to south africa?
@@volodyamihaelovich4576 literally EVERYONE is equally affected by crime in SA. Use your brain asseblief. Living in rural SA clearly comes with more challenges 😑
@Burning Spear It's sinking, though...
Keep going bro! So pleased for you all.
Welcome home good to have you back let build our county to be the best place to live with love and understanding and tolerance God Bless South Africa ❤❤❤
Welcome back. Did the same thing and happy here.....Our challenges are huge however.
Yeah, it's amazing here and you're spot on - the challenges are monumental! Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for sharing you story with us.
Welcome back I hope you and your family are doing great. God bless you.
Welcome back and thank you for sharing your story
You very brave .
Because a lot of farmers have being murdered in this country and the world says nothing and they talking about taking land away without compensation. I hope that God will protect you and your family.
I understand living in the UK.The winters are so depressing. I wish well
Thank you for your comment Irene. Yes unfortunately farm life is a bit more risky in South Africa but we have a great community around us. We hope and pray for a future for South Africa, not just our family.
It's really bad but who killed those farmers because it's not South African , you hired ppl from outside the country and you pay them very low n they endup killing you and you'll blame South Africans
Welcome back to south africa My brother
:) thank you
Awesome guys, well done and welcome back. Africa is in ur blood. Think positive and follow ur path. Will be great fr all of us to follow ur adventure.
Fuzzy Koenig Thanks so much!
i lived in southafrica 5 years and now a days am in pak but whole day am thingking about SA
So glad I found this. Have subscribed and hope to learn with you as you go along. Lots of overseas vlogs but not much from S.A. yay!!!
Great!! Thank you Marina, so glad you're following along.
Welcome back ☺️. Love my country. Hope you and your family is very happy
It is so refreshing to see an honest, down to earth video of a person who has left Europe to come to South Africa! It puts things into perspective and gives one something to think about about as we struggle with the thought of staying or leaving it all. Its a huge battle between the head and the heart! I always thought that the prospect of going to Europe would be an exciting one...its not easy....
Thank you, what a kind and considered comment!
Life in the uk is stressful and depressing
How's it depressing?? Thinking of taking a scholarship in the UK.
there are many people that love living in the UK. You definitely should take a scholarship in the uk. It’s just my own personal experience.
@@abulelenomsuka7016 Suza apha dude
abulele nomsuka depends on where you are as the kind of person.
For those asking why UK is depressing. With my experience, I lived in UK for over 20 years and it rains all the time especially changing weathers all at once like sun for 1 min then cloudy then rain. Sometimes it hard to tell what's weather is going to be for a day e.g whether to bring umbrella and coat with you all the time with 'just in case'. Also, here have 6 months of winter and less sunshine! We only get sun in the summer for 2 weeks and that's over till the fall and winter. It's so miserable! Imagine living with that for 20 years... jobs here is very difficult because all eu and immigrants took over jobs that leaving british people losing jobs and become homeless that's disrespectful to UK citizens - I've seen that everywhere. No help whatsoever. For those moving to uk thinking we get free NHS, benefits and accommodation but it's not what you expect. UK does have bad and good side especially safety because in London is the most dangerous city with crimes! UK is not perfect and I hate it here.
When you build on your farm, please allocate a good budget towards security like electric fences, beams, security gates, burglar guards on windows, big dogs and possibly a secure safe room for the family. Its will help deter criminals and may save your lives. Please make sure all adults in the family including the ladies obtain phew phew licences and are proficient in the use of them. Learn to always carry concealed 24/7 and by incorporating these important principals into your every day life you will be ok and hopefully live happily ever after. Best of luck with your new adventure.
Thanks Yanniv, it's worth considering. I appreciate your well wishes!
Greetings fellow south african.I returned last year after living 17 years in the UK which to me was just an existence that sucked the life force out of me.Africa has beauty but income generating is difficult but you seem to have a good plan which is important. Connect with nature and choose a simple life and you will see the rewards and most of all don't feed off the negativity of politics, just stay focused on the positives. Stay on the journey with like minded people and be brave and live life freely as possible because we know how restricting the UK can be.👍
Hi Lucio, thanks so much for your comment, really appreciate the positivity. Hope your move is going well too!
Yeah and how safe the UK is

Welcome bck my brother
Sounds like an adventure!
English guy... lived and worked in SA 1980 to 1984. 2 years Durban and then 2 years Johannesburg Really loved it, but the apartheid and separation started to affect me towards the end of my stay. Didnt return for many years and then had a trip staying in Sandton and Ballito and Durban. And then last year, having now retired I took a road trip , all up and down the west coat , both coastal and inland. Plus a few weeks in Namibia which Ive always loved for the solitutde. In SA Staying in aribnbs in small dorps , out of the way of any city , except for a week in Camps Bay. Loved it. Now am planning a beach road trip staying again on west coast Langebaan , Churchaven , then down to some garden route beach places , Port Alfred, Jeffreys bay, all those places. If that goes well I might apply for the retirement visa... or just take 90 days a years to visit SA. Its in my blood somewhere now as its so diverse, so stunning in scenery, with such kind wonderful hosts ...the best Ive encountered in 12 yers of airbnb in 15 different countries.
So well done to you sir adn your family for having the cojones to uproot from UK and head back to SA.
I hope you are now well established and thriving.
SA is a fantastic place for roadtrip style travel. Our family farm is about 3 hours from Jeffrey’s Bay, it’s a wonderful part of the world to visit. I was only born in 1984 so I didn’t really understand apartheid. If crime wasn’t such a huge issue I would love to stay in SA I definitely.
I wish you well on all of your trips to enjoy South Africa.
Welcome back nothing like home
Welcome home!
Good luck with your plan
Welcome home brother
Glad u are here. Ive been to the uk. So cold and miserable. Love south Africa so much. I get home sick.. 12 days time i long for home
Welcome home man
Thank you!!
as a South African only advice l can give you is..
1.be careful
2.always have backup plan to leave
this country sinking and no one can control it anymore
I hear you man, thanks for the comment.
ooo Dale,, I love seeing my fellow white South african , relocating back home,,, though it`s a bit scary but I wish you every bit of success,,,,,, myself I m still in the UK ,,, hoping to relocate back home ( SA ) sooooon......, all the best...xxxx

Amazing video. I always loved Africa. I left UK for where I'm originally from Gran Canaria, Spain in North Africa. I met South Africans in Gran Canaria who came to work. Maybe I'd like to give a try in South Africa after Covid and thinks gets better. Any advice guy ? Many thanks in advance
South Africa with all its crime still has areas that are safer than others. Not every part of the country is the same.

Been there once, most beautiful place i been to.
I'm Jamaican and I like what you do for your family Lotz of European sell there house and car and move to Jamaica too and start business and they live good there is a lot of development going on now in Jamaica we have a 2030 plan in the future you should come do business in Jamaica too the more the better
i was in south africa 2011 i live in Sweden but i am from Somalia and was immigrated this country but i love south africa
Welcome home 🤗
I honestly have one question as someone who was born in South Africa. Why would anybody EVER move TO South Africa, I am trying everything I can to get out of this mess of a country.
One thing you need to understand is have some bloody research on other countries. There are worse countries than in SA. You may think SA is the only country but it isn't. I lived in uk for over 20 years and it's so damn dull and miserable. I'm considering to move back home just like others and it has nothing to do with you! You have no idea but I suggest you fly and explore it yourself. Also, getting out (running away from home) isn't the option. You may think usa, uk etc are safe and give you everything but no it has good and bad side. Good luck if you wanted out. Make sure that's the right decision because when you do, you might realise why some of us want to go home.
You're probably living in fear and in that mindset.
Just switch off your cellphone and tel- lie- vision and live live live the life you need or want to live in US.... right here.
It only that fear that's imposed on you that will filter your perception of reality and truth and poison our lives. Without it you and I can become good neighbors at peace with prosperity... me black and you probably white.
I am not living in fear at all. It's more a case of the country not being the once great nation it was and it has become an absolute joke and no longer shares the same value system that it once did. Corruption is the order of the day and reverse racism is rampant. I wish to provide my future children a chance in a first world country, hence I am looking to move to Canada.
@@QuintinHaarhoff Maybe raising your kids up to Canada to a point it could be okay and afterwards bringing them back to SA to work in big companies. Canada is depressing I've been there plus the weather. Canada is only for education and to make some money. Canada also has crime.if you think that they are exempted of
@@nicolettepeinke299 totsiens
Friends of mine moved to New Zealand and after a few months just hated it. They moved back to SA and down to the Cape coast
Very interesting - it’s such a divisive topic. It’s tough here in many respects but we do love it. This country could set an incredible example to the world if we have better governance and a shift in mindset. Thanks for for comment!
World is changing organically. Many in the Anglo American Empire are running to "unsafe backward countries" where they can still continue to live the high life when the worst side of Capitalism is seeing its ar$€ in UK and US.
Welcome anyhow... you're South African. Your attitude is healthy, healing and refreshing. I completely share your outlook on life and set myself up in a similar fashion for some time now. I didn't have the benefit of such positive exchange rate swop that you had. I never benefited from the Petrodollar fraud on the world purportŕated by Anglo Americans until now.
Your move is very timeous . Now let's build this country together. Me black and you white.
I am an IT professional and have been plotting a move to South Africa for a while now. Is it even a good idea to move to SA for job?
Sir you should have moved into a gated community or estate in S.A.
Much safer .
A farm is not safe at all in S.A. now
Brother . Crime is out of hand in S.A.
This is fact and reality in S.A.

I know, it is a tough point and one that honestly bothers me. We have a good community here and we have each others backs. We're hoping and praying for things to change in South Africa.
@@DaleReubin Hi Dale thank you for your reply . Brother. I understand your love for S.A. I get it totally.
With you traveling so much.
DALE TAKE A FLIGHT AND have a look at Balito . Durban north on the Dolphin coast in S.A.
Many modern built gated communities..
Balito k.z.n. is a paradise for photography.
15minite drive from K.S. international airport. With direct flights too the u.k. British airlines.
Springdale estate in balito. Would be a nice fit for yr family and parents.

I pray all the best for you and yr family.
Welcome back in S.A. brother.
One thing I respect about your comment is that you said crime!
... and that's all it is! CRIME.
Yes people do talk about gated communities, the thing is not everyone can afford to reside in those.
I appreciate the gentleman for saying that he resides in a community where they lookout for each other.
Township crime is WORSE.
Our SAPS needs a major leadership haul.✌🏿
@@DaleReubin I wish the Commando way of protection is allowed to come back again. It had its problem of some notoriety, but it worked. SA need farmers & had always. Farm murders are destroying our economic viability & prospects of survival, the murderers are treasonous & we must act now & bring back the armed rapid-response Commandos (with checks & balances). We need the farmers, the example of a crippled Zimbabwe proves this. Seems like those in power don't care.
Ahhhh, bootie is being optimistic. Let him enjoy his ride. God speed you, Dale. You will have security cameras, dogs, guns, alarms, teach your wife how to shoot. Then live, bootie, live. I am from Mozambique and I live in California. Seriously considering going back. I understand you. Stay safe and stay blessed
Good luck to you n yor family. We left SA with our kids in the late 90's.n I dont regret...we.lived in New Zealand for 15yrs then recession hits NZ so we got jobs in Australia..kids stay ed back in NZ married n studies. We would visit S.A. when we can..with our kids..but for now NZ is the place I would like to go back to n live there. I do miss S.A... fam friends n culture but I would not risk my fam.. our lives for corrupt ion n crime. NZ is lovely n laid back with top 5 education rate..close to Japan Belgium etc...we in the process of buying coastal acres in NZ with our kids n do homesteading..living off grid etc...much safer. Evryone has choices opinions so u do ...what ever works for you guys..if it doesn't work out..try Australia..or NZ.. or other prts of Europe...u are still young...England doesn't sound like a good place to raise kids either. Plse stay safe in S.A... we hve a beautiful country with mostly kind caring people that's just struggling with corruptions in governments etc.. plus crime... from the apartheid era up until now...from very bad to worse corruption n crime. I pray the Lord be allowed to take His rightful place in that government meetings...and that His people will humble themselves n pray..turn from wicked ways n material things n status... n call upon God more than ever..not just SA.. but all over the world...we need the Lord. All the best. God bless.
WOW, thank you so much for your comment! A big part of our move was to help my folks into retirement, and they can't relocate to a different country so we had to come to them. Your prayers are most appreciated.
Yes man - good to have you back along with the positive attitude about this country.
Thanks Dan, so glad to be back. I love South Africa deeply!

I love South Africa too , currently living in the U.K.. life here is boring and stressful. If you are not working you are in school. I am Zimbabwean I just dnt know the process of how to get permanent residency given that am Zimbabwean originally but with UK citizenship ❤️
