Ok I know the topic has probably been done to death, I get it but it is so interesting especially when your living in South Africa. First of all I would like to talk about the tension that is going on in this country, white people and black people have a strange way of reacting to each other. White people cant say what ever they like around black people because they might be called racist, we black people say whatever comes in mind about white people and we know they wont take offence.
That is totally wrong I know, but I have to salute those few white people who just say what they like. Another thing, South Africa is a land that practices Ubuntu, lol I know that I say this like "its a MUST", but it is. If you live in S.A and you don't have this, people think you are not from this world. We are friendy and we help each other in times of need. We care about each other, well most of the time. So next time you are in South Africa, ask the people around you about Ubuntu and please do hop on a taxi and enjoy the ride. Taxis drivers in S.A are very interesting, I swear you can write a whole novel about them.
Taxi drivers have issues, like really they need psychological help. They take their frustrations out on their passengers which is totally wrong. They shout that is what they do and if you are not careful, you might find yourself crying. So you need to have patience when you are in S.A. But really it is a nice place, you will come to love it. I will never live this place because no Tsunami has ever happened here and there are no volcanoes, well I think so lol.
