Hey everyone here on the site I wanted to ask some questions about South Africa as I plan to move my career as an American Airlines pilot to South Africa where I would then fly for South African Airways.

http://i63.tinypic.com/4tnghz.jpg


First off I have done a fair amount of research and have one of my best friends as a resource because she lives in Cape Town half of the time and Johannesburg the rest. I am also fluent in two of the 11 national languages the first being English and the second being Afrikaans.

I'm just curious to see how many people are from South Africa here on the site as well as how many people have visited/ lived there. Also, I am interested to see what people think of the country and if they have ever been there what was worth seeing/ doing and what should be avoided.

this is a big leap, you might get culture shocked too, let me know how it goes when you do end up getting there!

I am very familiar with the overall culture however I do expect the culture to surprise when I first get there. I will most definitely let the site know when I make my move and I will give an update on how everything is.

Thanks man, luckily I am going in with an excellent financial position due to my current position as an American Airlines pilot but I hope that the move will be well worth it in the end.
