      I travel to Joburg every 3 months (girlfriend is a native and lives on a golf estate) and can attest to Ira greatness. I go so frequently because I love the environment (yep…it’s like the US except people have much better manners, food better and nature better and lifestyle is better). I lived there for 6 months during Covid (didn’t want to be locked down in the USA ). There is nothing in the USA that you can’t find in SA. No need bring anything “new” or teach anything because they already know. Just more reserved about showing off. I am baffled why aid groups go there cause locals know how to do well on their own.
      I said all of this to say everything you see is real. The city and country 100% legit. Joburg is laid back version of Atlanta and New York and Birmingham, Alabama (for historical events, Soweto, etc)

    Why are people shocked at the fact that South Africa is developed. That can only come from an arrogant, uneducated mind. And, our manners are more well developed as well. You greet a person first before you ask questions or have a conversation. It seems that Americans can learn more from us than us from them.

      Yes! It's American culture some don't know how to say hello before asking directions or questions. Also, I can't stand when some of them, say SA it's like America. HECK NO!, South Africans are more highly standard than America. The difference between the USA and SA is the Dollar!! Yeah, some of our brothers and sisters never travel internationally just going around only USA, they are so ignorant thinking that Africa doesn't
      have nice Malls, and they don't know fashion or African people don't drive nice cars. They don't know that most South Africans Blacks have maids and white helpers I witnessed that. Also, American Malls are okay but not all that. Sick and tired of them coming over there to do this video and talking blah-blah! Why don't they show Mississippi, North Carolina, And Downtown Los Angeles plus Queens in New YORK? Yeah please My fellow brothers when you go back home to the continent
      (First Please start greeting people before asking for directions or anything ]. Adopt the culture then you will get respect back, leave behind all that American culture when you visit any part of the world the best thing is to humble yourself and go with the flow. Remember they said when you go to Rome do what Rome does!! It's all the same. Peace!! and ❤

    Welcome to South Africa. Hope you are having fun. But there was cringe moments I'm surprised the Kenyans didn't correct you on. It was when you asked for directions from the first guys and they had to force you to greet them. In Africa you greet by default and when asked "How are you?" The answer is not "I'm fine". It's "I'm fine thank you" or " I'm fine and you?". It will help you a lot to practice greeting that way. Any enjoy your stay.

    Howzit my brother from another mother...welcome ko South Africa man. It's ncaaa(sweet) here. Think of it this way, since you left your apartment (guest house) how many incidents of crime did you see, how many people have been mugged infront of you, I guess none.
    People young and old are walking up and down minding their own business nobody is killing the other, no police stopping and arresting you for shooting your video, nobody behaving nasty towards you. Everybody doing their bit... that's Africa for you.

    Interesting fact about Johannesburg is the GDP of the city is bigger than Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania put together so it's not surprising that South Africa is far developed than any black country in Africa, South Africa is powerhouse in Africa it competes with EGYPT, NIGERIA and MORROCO. In 2023 SOUTH AFRICA was the 3rd most visited country in the continent after EGYPT and MORROCO. CAPE TOWN SOUTH AFRICA was the most visited city in Africa according to world tourism magazine. Kenyan and South African people are similar in body structure and looks.🇰🇪🇿🇦🤍
