That's simple... We're South Africans!
We moved to the UK in 2006 and once we adjusted to the culture shock we managed to settle quite well but it always felt like something (besides the sunshine) was missing.
After much thought we realised that it was the South African spirit that we longed for, the spirit which lives within all South Africans...
We couldn't go home as our life was now abroad but we missed the people terribly. In 2013 we started a Facebook group for South Africans living abroad and found it grew quicker then we ever anticipated. We built it and they came... we found a way to be with the people once more. From jokes to politics and even virtual braai's we spend time together and have gotten to know one another well.
Now we have decided to branch out and create a bigger platform for information and networking and look forward to whatever else it brings with it. This is just the beginning and we are really looking forward the journey ahead with other great South African's!
