I didn't spend the entire 5 years in SA.. I kept going back home to East Africa (Uganda)... I mostly did School over in SA and the short holidays.. The longer holidays, I spent back home mostly with friends. Most of my family lived permanently in SA at the time.
I was a teenager then so... Student :)
BRAAI!!! Braai is basically backyard barbecue (You can equate it to the American 4th of July bbq) except there's no need for an occasion to Braai .. a South African tradition of sorts. Downright best thing about my time in SA. It was less about the bbq itself, more about the people who came by.. I made most of my friends having Braai :) Gosh I miss Braai :(
The Scenery, the people, the food... so many things to love.
Some areas are pretty chaotic (read dangerous) and are best avoided especially if you were a foreigner. Moving around with weapons (knives and guns) in SOME AREAS not all places, seemed to be the norm which was a shock my little East African self :). Also having to carry documentation at all times was pretty tiring. I would literally panic if I ever forgot my passport home, even with a trip to the grocery store. I think I was overreacting though. I can count the number of times I got asked for documentation.
The neighbourhood we lived in was pretty safe though. So that was a relief.
