That was five years ago when I visited South Africa with my daughter. Until then, I had not left my country for another place, but that year I decided to travel at least to see how other places would be. I can say that I enjoyed it because South Africa is a beautiful country. They planned the country very well, unlike my country. There are natural trees, and their beaches were something else. The area where my brother was living was very cozy and the environment was very neat. Their social amenities are very good and always available; they never have power outages, and their water supply is steady. I also visited schools with my brother to see the children as they dropped them off. Their schools are quite good, and the education is impressive. The students were able to articulate what they were being taught. One of the highlights of the trip was when we went to visit the beach. We spent a long time there, surrounded by trees and grass, which were very beautiful. We enjoyed a barbecue and the music. The local people entertained us with their music, and their food was very tasty. They have different kinds of food, and I was able to try one or two dishes that I now enjoy. Since then, I've been eager to go back to South Africa because during my visit, I made friends with some of the locals, and we are still exchanging emails and contacting each other through WhatsApp and other social media. They are friendly people, welcoming, and I feel they have a strong cultural tradition that they tend to keep.
