as a californian, i appreciate what i call 'big nature.' this is not just pretty. it's the kind of nature that makes you drop to your knees in complete humility to your surroundings.
Please came n visit my Coutry South Africa, i promise its not like what the west media is telling you about system RSA n USA is the same no Jungles but if you want to animals like lion etc you'll see them they i kept somewhere safe for such important Please like visitors, in no Wars in RSA media is problem.
I lived in both provinces and yes mpumalanga is breathtaking, from graskop to kaapsehoop and its wild horses. Cape Town will always be home but mpumalanga win everytime
Thank you for showing the real beauty of mama Africa and not what they are putting out there, staving woman and children with flies they struggling to remove from their faces because they are week from hunger, its about time we start telling our own story to the world about who we are as a people Crime, poverty and corruption is everywhere even in the US it should not be made to seem like it's only worse when it happens in Africa, to all Africans in the diaspora you need to step in the African soil and at list breath the African air we are looking forward to greeting you the Africa way 👋👋👋
Mark I really like what you said. "This is where our ancestors come from". This is nothing further from the truth. You are 100% correct, your ancestors come from this land. Lisa tried to claim America as if she is from America and again you told her straight that you are an African. You have all the right to this land and to enjoy it. This is the heritage our ancestors left us.
This weekend I'm flying down to Eastern Cape , East London. I can't wait to fly over Lesotho mountain, they are breathtaking. Please consider doing the Drakensberg Mountains from Nothern KwaZulu Natal down the Underberg area. It's spectacular..
There is a beautiful route leading to the Provincial Capital. The route passes by a small town called Kaapschehoop. The small town has a large population of wild horses. The winding road will take you through some of the most beautiful landscapes of our province Mpumalanga
everytime i see the beauty u showing,my world just b alryt.breathing taking video u are doing good work and thank u for sharing with us.surely we will spread the word😍👌
Hey Mark and Tasha, I really love love love what you are doing for my beatiful country. May God continue to bless your work. Please can you do SA Traditional Weddings, the Decor, the whole Planning, the Food and ofcourse the MUSIC etc ... And just add how SA have fun/Chill-out. Thank you guys Stay Blessed
Great idea but someone has to invite them first. I'd definitely invite them to a family reunion or traditional wedding in so they can share the wonderful cultural experience.
To all those who are wondering why the kids are lightskin it’s because black South Africans have Khoi DNA in them. This is an ethnic group originally from South Africa who are naturally lightskin without any mix with Europeans. They were later forced a bit North into Namibia and some are in the Northern Cape in South Africa. But most of the black genetic make up of black South Africans is Khoisan. I’m also fully African but I’m light as a muhfvckr. So never assume all Africans are naturally dark skin there’s no such unless it’s West Africans then that is the case.
Thank you for saying this. It's so disheartening to read people claiming all sorts of things, like skin bleaching or worse, that we're mixed with European DNA or even Asian DNA (totally missing the fact that East Asian phenotypes exhibit a lot of features that the Khoi and San have, and by extension, the rest of the Black population in SA. For that matter, the idea that Khoi/San can be separated from the so-called Bantu,.or that we are somehow separate genetically, sociologically etc, is false. We have become so intertwined and I interwoven into one another, that it's almost laughable to treat these groups as separate or distinct. Not lost on is, is the fact that we speak the oldest languages on earth, we live in the oldest lands and soils on earth, with the oldest deserts, oldest peoples and the most diverse gene pool on earth. South Africa (in fact Southern Africa, really) is a treasure trove of the world, the most fascinating story,a world in one country, if you will.
Namani Ntloko yeah💯 humanity began here in South Africa. We not from up north in Africa. We are the oldest humans on the earth. We gave birth to Africa. We are the originals.
I did the hike that was extremely difficult and excruciatingly challenging. Basically you hike from that level to about over 1500 meters down to the river meandering rocky mountain terrain until you rich the river Blyde. By the waterfall. God all Mighty, Almighty, it is beautiful and rewarding, I was slain in the spirit. Very rewarding.
yhoooo man i love you guys truth is am south african but you actually made me love my home country even more .. you know what am giving you a new south african name ..yeah as from today your name is Sipho and you south african ,,... lol yeeah man bigs ups to you family nice work thank you
Greetings The Real South, beautiful scenery, thanks for showing us a small glimpse of what's in store for those who book visits or vacations through your agency.. I did enjoy it, you guys are a real inspiration .
"We are at the world's 3rd largest canyon. Obviously you can't see it all cause it's... the world's 3rd largest canyon." 😂😂😂 For some reason that part made me laugh but great work guys on showing our beautiful country
Thank you so much for representing us in a positive way. Did you manage to see God's window, the pinnacle, Sudwala caves and Macmac falls? 🇿🇦 I should have chosen a career in tourism 🤔
Wow Mpumalanga is so beautifull i've lived in south africa all my life but ive never gotten the chance to leave kzn hopefully i can travel for my bday now i'm working!!!
Hey The Real South Africa!!! Loving the content, you showing me places I didn't know exist in my beautiful country. Keep up the good work. Just as a suggestion, may you please use a drone in your future videos? I believe the birds eye view will be spectacular for your video content 🔥🔥👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
There's a belief I from my friend who come the side of Mpulamga that when you get to the pothole you throw some cions for good luck charm. I am not sure how true it is, just sharing some information. People who know better can comment on it.
Hi, there! I just saw a video of mpumalanga and they say it’s SNOWING! Does it get that could there? Does it really snow there? I saw it on Nees24. Thank you!
Well, Southern Hemisphere we are in Spring now... Summer starts in December right up to February. March to May is autumn /fall... June to August is our winter period...
it's not the 3rd largest canyon in the world but it is in the top 10 coming in at number 9. it is however considered the greenest canyon in the world. I think the largest canyon in Africa is in Botswana or Namibia, not too sure.
@@Cerl84 Oh really? do yourself a favor and google "Capertee Valley, Australia" and "Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon". then come back again and leave a reply, i'll wait.
@@Cerl84 I never said Mr Blanton made it up nor was i thinking that. Let's just agree to disagree. canyons can be measured differently, some might be measuring it in terms of width, some in terms of depth or length or whatever. between "the deepest canyon" , "the longest canyon" and "the widest canyon"..... which one do you think is actually referred to as "the biggest"? some even say the Grand canyon is not the biggest in the world. again, it depends on how one is measuring it.
as a californian, i appreciate what i call 'big nature.' this is not just pretty. it's the kind of nature that makes you drop to your knees in complete humility to your surroundings.
I'm addicted to The Real South Africa TH-cam channel, love every video from this channel
Please came n visit my Coutry South Africa, i promise its not like what the west media is telling you about system RSA n USA is the same no Jungles but if you want to animals like lion etc you'll see them they i kept somewhere safe for such important Please like visitors, in no Wars in RSA media is problem.
Mark and Tasha we love you very much ❤️🇿🇦 thank you (siyabonga)
Thanks for promoting our country 💕
Please check the Vetho Group Hotels. Black owned. Efficiently run with nearly 20 years experience.
That's what I love so much about the RSA! They take you all over especially in the rural areas.... goodness that canyon is beautiful!!!!!
It really is!
Man my country is beautiful 😍
Breathtakingly beautiful scenery Mpumalanga might be more beautiful than Cape Town lol
You might be right
You are not joking, you are right... Mpumalanga is something else hey
I lived in both provinces and yes mpumalanga is breathtaking, from graskop to kaapsehoop and its wild horses. Cape Town will always be home but mpumalanga win everytime
I'm a hopeless addict to this channel. Mark and Tasha, what have you done? You got me hooked?
Same here
Watching you guys from Derbyshire UK. Good job hey!
This place looks otherworldly.
Thank you for showing the real beauty of mama Africa and not what they are putting out there, staving woman and children with flies they struggling to remove from their faces because they are week from hunger, its about time we start telling our own story to the world about who we are as a people
Crime, poverty and corruption is everywhere even in the US it should not be made to seem like it's only worse when it happens in Africa, to all Africans in the diaspora you need to step in the African soil and at list breath the African air we are looking forward to greeting you the Africa way 👋👋👋
And another one 💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿
The surrounding rural area at the Potholes is called Matibidi. ❤️❤️❤️ the content🇿🇦
Thank you for doing this for africa
This is gorgeous. I'm South African and I've only been to 4 provinces. Never explored the northern provinces. I'm inspired.

Blyde river canyon is the third largest canyon on earth but the second largest canyon , the Fish River Canyon is also in South Africa

I support your request
Great idea but someone has to invite them first. I'd definitely invite them to a family reunion or traditional wedding in so they can share the wonderful cultural experience.
We will try
Theirs is a travel and lifestyle site. Why should they do all those other things which have nothing to do with their business.
@@m2ranojaholo79 Lol, agreed. There's OPW for all that.
This is absolutely beautiful! Y'all are doing fabulous work!
That's my beautiful province mpumalanga, also check sabie and Hazyview +Kruger national park too
I this you guys should also have a south african tour for people in south africa, any nationality ofcourse.

Right, my mom's entire side of the family is like 90% light skinned, 100% Bantu Khoisan, not mixed with anything else. Just like with most Azanian's🇿🇦
💯👌 That's one if the reasons the Blanton's blend in so easily in S.A.

Wonderful video. Thank you for showcasing the three rondavels. Wonderful views and wonderful selfies

Drone shots will be nice, nice video though .
Drone visuals would've been super nice 😭
That camera is amazing. I swear that I just cannot wait to come.
Me too!
when you coming?
Liking before I watch
The Blanton's please do another road trip from Jozi via East London all the way to Kzn. 🙂👌
The other family spoke about spirit of ubuntu meaning "Being self though others". A form of humanism in isiZulu.
Not only in isiZulu but in all S.A.'s vernacular.
Ubuntu means humanity
yhoooo man i love you guys truth is am south african but you actually made me love my home country even more .. you know what am giving you a new south african name ..yeah as from today your name is Sipho and you south african ,,... lol yeeah man bigs ups to you family nice work thank you

Nice!
Beautiful (is the mic fitted with the sock/dead cat...? ) Really beautiful. Love love love 💞💞💞
Mpumalanga should fix its crumbling roads. What has Supra been doing all the years as premier of the province, besides stealing money.
I was David Mabuza . I don't know the current one . They are a bit troubled in terms of handling finances.
Have you experienced fall or winter there yet?
Duh which country in the world doesn't have 4 seasons 😂🤣
Well, Southern Hemisphere we are in Spring now... Summer starts in December right up to February. March to May is autumn /fall... June to August is our winter period...
@@jlesedi some countries near the equator only experience 2 seasons: wet and dry.
Thanks everyone for responding!
@@devorahstree671 West Africa is closer to the equator.
South Africa isn't.

stop spreading nonsense from a youtube video. Largest Canyons: 1. Grand Canyon,2. Fish River Canyon, 3. Blyde River Canyon. In that order.
@@Cerl84 Oh really? do yourself a favor and google "Capertee Valley, Australia" and "Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon". then come back again and leave a reply, i'll wait.
@@mrk8699 you think Blanton made that up? Google/Wiki 'Blyde River Canyon' and refer any further comments to them.

They are African Americans. Other Africans in the diaspora are reaching out tho. Why?
