10 Things That Shocked Us While Visiting South Africa | Part 2

[@thabo3866]

South Africa is like a world in one country, the climate, the cuisine, the diversity, the landscape..etc

[@nthabisengmametja7031]

I’m South African living in the USA. When I tell Americans that South African Malls are fancier and more convenient than USA malls and that I haven’t come across a mall in New York or Boston ( I lived in both places) that’s nicer than SA malls they think I’m lying. One time I went to a mall next to my place called my Mom in SA to show her the mall and her reply was “why nkare oko di firm’eng Nthabi 😂.She couldn’t believe that’s a mall in the states and she added that even South Gate mall looked better. Lesson learned since I moved to the US, grass is not always greener on the other side hence African Americans are moving to SA, SA is not bad guys , you realize that once you move. Fact : South African architecture and interior design is way better and fancier than US, although in America everything is huge, Huge houses, Huge Buildings but they lack that modern feel.

[@mosalethoba5267]

😂😂 . Yah neh even Trevor said that South Africa aint a crap like how we think it is .

[@cobwebtheorem7538]

The US moved away from malls a long time ago. You live there. Most of the stuff in your house was delivered by truck. Not 🚫 by you going physically to the mall to buy it. Malls ceased to be a symbol of 'development' ages ago. Except in wannabe places...including Dubai, especially.

I am Kenyan and would still choose South Africa for settling. Been to Johannesburg and Capetown and I love the country!

Most people in Africa would Choose SA if they could. It's not just for the infrastructure, but South African People are really nice...I am always amazed at how wonderful people are to each other, with all that we've been through, and all that we're dealing with.

Great as always. One thing you will soon realise about South Africa is that we are not trying to be the best in Africa when we do things but we are trying to be the best in the World and our Geography (climate,landscape, biodiversity, human diversity profile) gives us an edge in persuit of this. 1. The first heart transplant in the whole world was done in this country (Not USA, Not UK, Not Germany Not Russia, Not Japan here in SA. SA is a country of so many firsts that sometimes shocks people. South Africa is twice the size of France England is about the same size as one of its provinces( Eastern Cape) yet there is a fairly even distribution of infrastructure across all 9 provinces from towns to smaller cities to cities to city regions to the megapolis of Jozi, Durban and Cape Town.

There are a variety of different English accents in South Africa. What you guys heard was Afrikaans-English, which is frowned upon by the Conservative-English speakers, who are form British descent & spoken by the more wealthy English upper classes. There are over 100 distinct accents total which could be simplified down to about 3 or 4 main dialects. Black people from wealthier parts who go to private schools & speak in a distinctly different manner than those who don't.

[@cobwebtheorem7538]

This is the comment I was looking for

[@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE]

That’s good to know

[@anneliebouwer673]

And can I add that you get different Afrikaans-English accents in SA depending on where you are in the country and as stated where they went to school as well as race. Remember there are white Afrikaans speaking people and coloured Afrikaans speaking people (let me just clarify that in SA coloured does not mean a black person amd is not offensive as in America it is an actual race, where in America any person of colour is called black here its not the same) I learned quickly while working in the US a while back that calling someone coloured is VERY offensive and a huge no. I actually heard Trevor Noah say Americans keep telling him not to call himself coloured😂PS. I realise it might be the loudness and brasness of Afrikaans white people that make you think the accent sound Australian and we hear that a lot from other countries but we hate it as we are South African and in a lot of sports like cricket and rugby Australia is one of our biggest oponents. Its like calling Americans British or Jamaican 😂

[@basilisk..]

Im one of those Afrikaans people who speaks with an accent that sounds Australian to a degree, i understand, read and write English as good as any other English speaking person....but my accent makes it sound like i dont know English 🤷‍♂️

There is one thing that makes me grateful and hapy as the Scholar of African history and anthropology of our origins, THE EASE, PEACE OF MIND and Relaxed less stress state. It feels so good when our people from the Diaspora when they visit Africa that they need not to be met with what they left back in the places there. South Africa is complex and our lifestyle has nuisances but in general all South Africasn are happy poeple. Black, White, Colored, Indian and others.

I agree with you. Those malls are really something else and the quality of the stores you find inside them really give you value for your money....... one thing i really noticed was their very reasonable and fair prices. But true there are many. My best was the Eastgste and Sandton ones........ Thank you for sharing! Much love from Zimbabwe.

Visit Manlyn Mall in Pretoria South Africa, the 2 hugest mall in South Africa, things are reasonable price because are made in South Africa not exported, I been in most African countries, things are expensive there because They export almost everything

[@arotogtech]

@@kevinreezygaming That's so true. I compared some roads in Utah, Saltlake city for example and I personally found that SA had some very good and better and attractive roads generally that Utah. Hollywood had a way of selling us the image that everything is gold in the US including the roads.......I remember Trump saying even the airports of Qatar are shaming those of the US. In saying so, I do concede that the US is a more powerful country overall than South Africa, but its not a perfect country made of pure gold. Other areas other countries are better.

[@helenabrits4084]

My husband and I are in the US at the moment for a working trip of 3 months. Many people asked me if we are Australian. One thing I can maybe add about the development of our country is that the SA Rand was stronger than the US dollar in the 80's (1 Rand to 2 dollar) until the US put sanctions against SA due to apartheid. Maybe that can be a contributing factor that SA is quite developed. What I appreciate about SA is the divirsity of cultures. There are so much warmth in the divirsety. The only thing that hinders it is the political agendas that are pushed. But I think all the cultures are wonderful and amazing. I don't want to live in any other country.

[@vumilia_virgo]

Most prolly because a lot of white south africans moved to australia

[@ssher]

You guys really got that x-factor thing going in presenting your content, like no others, so i keep coming back. Yep, you guys do like your food and your thinking Afrikaans speaking folk sound Australian is funny, but understandable. You might eventually also discover that as we are a country with various languages some black folk in certain areas will speak Afrikaans as their preferred language (up in the Northern areas) and of the multiple peoples there are accents that vary based on the tribe and/or region. Linguistically speaking we have such a rich environment that in spite of the differences somehow works for all South African people in that now famous ubuntu spirit. Can't wait until you pick up more of the languages, even just the basics. There's another episode or more in that for you guys to make.

[@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE]

[@CyberRags]

Interesting to hear the perspectives of visitors/ex pats to 🇿🇦, which is great. South African accents - don’t get me started. I am an English speaking South African of mostly British descent and would never have thought Afrikaans speaking folk sound Australian🤔, not slightly more Dutch? Comparing us English speakers vs Afrikaans speakers, especially those of us who grew up speaking either language, our “mother tongues”, we definitely have differing accents, but we do use the same slang (actually any South African regardless of race or background knows the same slang that’s for sure!). I actually grew up in Zimbabwe but have been living in South Africa since I left high school over 30 years ago but my Mother and sister, who now live in England tease me about my (English)South African accent and say I have lost my (English) Zimbabwean accent! The first time I met an Irishman working in Zimbabwe, I asked him if he was Scottish🤣. Accents are are so interesting. Through the years I have generally learned differing accents around the word, but my husband still can’t tell the difference for example between an American or a Canadian, or even between an Australian or a Kiwi - we all speak English but yet quite differently! Despite our problems, there is so much potential here…..

Visiting South Africa over Christmas is in any event a nightmare, because everywhere is terribly overcrowded and the prices are tripled so that the hospitality industry can make money which they don't make during the off season. It's much better to come here during our autumn (which is your spring). Roughly from March to May, when the weather is the best, depending on where you go. Even February is a great month in which to visit. Cape Town has the nicest weather in February and March.

I am sure it has been said already. Two things: 1. Australian accent. Nope. Never. If anything, there might be a similarity between the New Zealand accent and the South African English accent. But no way, Australian. 2. Snow!? Where? If there is snow in the Highveld (Gauteng), it is extremely rare. In the Western Cape you will only really find snow in the mountains and in some places in the Northern and Eastern Cape provinces. All of which again are at altitude. Most certainly not in densely populated areas. Yes, this last winter, we had snow more widespread, but that is definitely the exception. Good job on the channel. Bravo on the effort you guys are putting in. Please be sure to visit other areas, especially North east and west, the greater western and eastern Cape and the Drakensburg region, to mention but a few. Lekker kuier!

South Africa is like Wakanda

Bro that’s actually a good representation, it’s poor from the outside perspective of people like you, bust then better than the country you are from in the inside

Regarding the fact that we sound Australian, me personally as an Afrikaner once watched a video of a guy from Australia and thought it was an Afrikaner only to find out later he's Australian. So you're not alone on that part.😊

We are used to the type of heat we experience. Hence AC is not popular

It was our first snow in many years so it doesn’t snow regularly

It’s really nice to see other people discovering that what the Americans and Europeans thought of Africa is wrong, I’m South African and I’m living in China, and almost everyone thinks that there is like, no water at all, there is bat any electricity, which is partly true but we still have it, and the fact that most of the facilities are better than some first world countries which almost no one would believe until they see it for themselves
