I just left JoBurg and I had a fabulous time. No issues at all. Everyone was wonderful, and I felt safe. I felt at peace for a change.

As I've previously mentioned that as a Melinated American I've lived and worked the broadcast industry in South Africa jhb 27 years and what I've experienced is that when you have a certain skill set which is needed you can maneuver yourself into amazing opportunities in South Africa 🌍

As long as you associate yourself with the right people and keep your head on a Swivel by staying out of harm's way you and your children will be safe.

Continued growth and blessings 🙏

Thank you my dear, for promoting my country so well.
Those that are scaring you away from South Africa come here every year, sometimes two, three times a year.
Some have bought homes here and are very happy here. And most of them come from white America, Europe, the rich Western and Northern countries!

[calvinmccarver]

I vacationed in South Africa, it's not dangerous!!!

[victorallen]

Hi Ashley I live in Atlanta and have also visited Cape Town and Johannesburg and you are totally correct I felt totally safe in both cities much safer than here in Atlanta

[kevinlipps]

In the future, I intend to reside in Kenya. I am currently studying Swahili, as it significantly aids in building relationships with the local community. This approach fosters connections with individuals, thereby reducing the likelihood of conflict.

Numerous individuals visit African nations and other regions to exploit local populations, engaging in activities such as sex tourism and other forms of labor exploitation for profit. This commodification of people often leads to local communities responding with resistance. The issue lies not within the criminality of the country itself, but rather in the behavior of these individuals. Such actions should not be generalized as indicative of the region's overall danger.

[vienicestyles]

Sis! I cannot wait to move there early next year!

Hi Ashley, i am South African Black and proud this country has lots of opportunities, the sad reality is Black South followed politicians for too long with the hope of prosperity. Life is all about waking up every morning with a meaning. I changed my career to Forex Trading with the intention of finding Finacial Freedom, self-taught. Black South Africans like complaining a lot instead of putting up the work

[Bhebe]

I was there December from New Zealand, and i had no issues. Every country on earth has dangers here and there.

[mammamachitela]

I used to stay in Yeoville, it is very dangerous and too populated now, but i have been staying still staying in Northriding, Randburg for four years now, and i feel veey safe and peaceful.

[D_Edia]

We really misses you Ashley, but we are glad that you came back, I'm sure winter was not chasing you away from SA, We welcome spring time, it's gonna be lit.

[spiritsrejoice]

Ms Ashley once more.. thank you.. Your comparative is spot on.. Living and working in London.. I can tell you there're countless murders here too.. almost on a weekly basis.. Love your content your world view.. you touch to torch my heart❤

South African violence is different to American violence for sure - more likely to get hit with a machete than a bullet. I'm from Cape Town - I have left South Africa, and I've been living in South East Asia for the past few years - but I miss my home, I won't go back because of the crime lol. But to be fair, Cape Town statiscally has more crime than Joburg, but Cape Town doesn't feel as dangerous in Joburg. Also, you probably don't experience the crime - because as you said- the wealthy people who can afford safety don't really have to worry. It's those outside of the wealthy circle.

[molefejappie]

Hi Ashley. I wish I was an African American, and then I should have located to the richest Square mile in SA long ago in order to enjoy what you are talking about in this video.

I always follow you, though I am a black South African but wanna hear how our diaspora feel living in our wonderful sunny South Africa. You nailed it girl. Keep it up young woman.

[nontozamoluqhide]

my country 🇿🇦is not safe yes. but most countries have criminals. I pray God one day will give us leadership who truly love and willing to protect our country. KZN is trying now maybe one day our country will be the safe country in the world 🙏

[Ms.Robinson__]

Been here for almost a year. It's not that deep...if you're prepared, resourced and use wisdom.

[maverickwitlouw]

Cape Tonian South African here, and I agree. Crime in both Jozi and Cape Town are usually overblown by the media and such.
