We are raised to bielieve that due to statistically high crime rates that South Africa is a dangerous hotspot waiting for victims to appear , which in actual fact is far from the truth .
South Africa is actually one of the warmest places to be . Surrounded by art , colorful beads and locals wanting to interact with you - you will feel like Africa will never leave you .
In terms of violence we can with open arms say that almost eery country faces the same threats and thats why it is so important to be well aware of your surroundings and the area you are in.
Outside the late Sir Nelson Mandelas house you will find the street as vibrant as ever with ethnical beautiful dancers showing you the culture of South Africa
You can also go on guided bicycle tours throught the townships to see firsthand how the majority of Africans live, eat and spend their time .
\this is just a taste of what I wanted to portray .
I will have a more indepth longer post based on South Africa and all its beauty.

Hi @AzzFromAfrica I was so filled with warmth and smiles while reading your post like " I couldn’t have said it better myself" and I cannot believe that no one responded/commented on your post! We as South Africans need to find a way to do better here on connect to support each other and grow together in this beautiful local guides community. Your pictures took me back home, please do not stop sharing beautiful stories of South Africa. We need to come together and spread positive stories about our country here on connect and on google maps. I look forwad to reading more of your posts. Thank you for sharing!
