I gave lived in the US, the UK, Spain, Lesotho, Germany, Portugal, and South Africa. I returned to Cape Town in 2015 for family reasons. I first left it in 1974.

I cannotbstand the country. It is as racist as it ever was, and, of course, the people are provincial. That said, I don't believe I said anything about inrlequality in Portugal. South Africa is the most unequal ciuntry in the world.

So what do you mean that you experienced the same thing in South Africa as I did in Portugal? You said you went for a month, so it hardly sounds like you immigrated and had endlesd trouble with authories. I am confused.

I don't like South Africa at all, and as much as I would never set foot back in Portugal, I would never set foot back in South Africa. I have been back (to live) twice. One in 1975 and once on 2015. Thank you, but no thank you.
