    As a white South African, I'm so grateful that I discovered this channel and it gladdens my heart to see and hear how comfortable African Americans feel in my beloved country. I want you to know that it's not only your African brothers and sisters who welcome you here, but that a lof of us white folks love our rainbow nation and we are rooting for you all to come and settle here and make a living and make your dreams come true. It warms my heart to hear that black Americans feel more human, more accepted and more comfortable being here than they feel back in the States. We are a friendly, open and welcoming nation and I send my love to every single person of colour who comes here and who experiences what I call the African magic. 😀☺😘🥰❤

    Wow. Real South Africa got them some country biscuits (in my southern accent). LOL (just joking). I like that southern American accent, I have one but not as deep as his. LOL. I'm glad they had fun and experience the motherland. This channel is beneficial in many ways. Mark and his wife not only help with travels but relocating as well. I will certainly be using their services in the near future to relocate. I have been to South Africa several times, but I certainly want to relocate when my child reaches 18 in 4 years. By then, I'll be close to my retirement. LOL

    Excellent interview Mark! All of them are. Keeping opening eyes and minds and helping people expand beyond their current situation stateside to see and experience the reality that better lives can be found abroad.
    Black Americans have options and doing have to remain stuck in USA’s toxic nature. Don’t have to deal with the opinion of Europeans or being the unusual one (ethnically) in sitting. South Africa is a fabulous place to be the “normal” one. Africa is a mentally and emotional and spiritually upgraded option in life.
    I’ll continue my quarterly visits (to live my best life) from USA until retirement next year. Then it’s permanent move. It’s home.❤️

    Amazingly the folk in the background was all white people at that venue during your interview... The pilots that were walking by and other tourists... There are so many,... thousands of White Americans living here in South Africa, yet still doing business back in the States and living very very comfortably here,... dollar vs rand. Why is it so very difficult for our own African American brothers and sisters to do the same... Thanks to people like you Mr. Blanton and Dr. Asad and a few others that now see the light.

    But we want AAs to get the best accomodation. So don't stop showing us those videos. Unless otherwise we are happy if they get suitable accomodation or vacation. We want our DNA back.
