Being from SA, I must honestly say that BsAs is much safer. But Cape Town is one of those cities that might just be worth the risk ;)

Hi there, Cape Town is wonderful place, good vibe, good quality lifestyle and so close too nature (which I miss so much in BsAs) Is it more dangerous? yes. But it is a joke that Cape Town was named one of the most dangerous cities. Johannesburg probably yes, but CT _ no. You need to keep...

I realise all of this now. I was stupid. Truth is we were late for an airport pickup, and we left the apartment in a rush (but clean!), met them at the door, arranged when and from who we could pick up the keys on our return. (i still informed her of 2 glasses I had broken and meant to replace...

first contract would have ended 10 Feb. But along with them we discussed us leaving earlier and returning earlier. THey agreed we did not need too pay for the 1 month we would be away as long as our bags and stuff were removed. and we paid another months rent upfront. sorry to be moaning about...

our problem is that we will be moving back into the apartment in one months time and that we have paid a month ahead. So they have a large sum of money of ours. I assumed I could trust them, look like a nice enough couple. what will prevent them from doing this again when we check out at the...

all of what she is saying is crazy lies. But how do we prove this?? place was as spotless as it can be when you are packing and cleaning at the same time. is it a case of her word against ours? Stupid cow, I even made sure all her plants were watered and thriving, looked 10 times better on the...

apartment was left in great condition. yes, probably needed a few things before it could be rented to someone else, ie, a few of the dishclothes were wet from finishing the dishes that morning, and making the bed again. As it is a furnished apartment along with towels and bedding I thought it...

Being new to BsAs, I had been scouting out all the supermarkets. I've noticed right accross the city there are loads of EKIS supermarkets... always dead quiet, like a horror movie and almost empty shelves. Why does no one shop there? more expensive, bad quality, bad rep? just curious :)

i'd love to here more about it too please! *

Hi there, been looking at different websites Buquebus and colonia express... the cheapest I can get round trip to Colonia is a solid $800 for 2 of us.... is there really no cheaper way? Another local service? oh well. not a visa run, was hoping to get to see colonia a bit...

Hi Robert! Who could refuse and offer like that?? When would you be available? if you do want company, we would be sure to bring all the food and drinks for you too! a day on a boat sounds divine right about now!

not quite what i was hoping to find, but each to their own...

Hi everybody, This Christmas we just realised again that we are very keen to join a church in BsAs. We are looking for a church that is english speaking and not catholic. Anyone have any pointers? I know of the one in San Isidro, just a bit out of the way, but else thats the one it will be...

hi everybody, went to hospital Fernandez, not bad, just a really long wait, unsure where to go etc. Finally saw a docter, in a kind of waiting room with loads of chairs, connected to the passage without a door, there she asked what was wrong, told her (all in Spanish ;) she wrote out a...

thank you! on my way.
