Yeah it is great living in NZ and it is now the #1 safest place on the planet. Here is the source - http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2009/06/02/WORLD_PEACE_0306.pdf

Schalk, my feelings exactly!!!

Unfortunately it is those SAffers who have never travelled and experienced what life is like in other countries -they are often the ones that have a lot to say about us folks who have left SA. What do they know and how dare they even have anything to say about us wanting a better life in a better country. As you say, they are being boiled slowly to death and can't see it for themselves.

I always find it amazing how quickly one forgets that stress called survival.

Nes jy daar sê schalk

Ek is al die hele oggend

Daar was 'n remoer in die straat vanoggend en toe ek ry sien ek my elec heinig oor die hek is afgebreek en lê oor die hek in 'n kraaines!

Gelukkig is ons fine en niks is weg nie (wat ons kan sien) maar ek stres al die hele dag oor wat dalk vannaand gaan gebeur!

Sommer vir Luke in NZ gebel en bevlieg oor sy WP te lank vat en ons hier soos hoenders in 'n hok moet wegkruip terwyl hy veilig is! Asof dit sy skuld is en dit is nou maar 'n week. Maar mens verloor heeltemal jou kop as sulke dinge gebeur.

So ja, vandag is my bloeddruk baie hoog, ek huil, voel mismoedig en kwaad en bo
als BANG vir die nag wat voorlê

Ek sien SO uit na die tipe lewe wat jy nou so mooi beskryf het

Bid tog vir ons dat daai WP net kan kom en ons hier kan uit!!

it really is difficult to describe the empowering feeling of not being constantly scared anymore

Vasbyt Janoma my hart en gebede gaan uit na jou toe.

Its really nice to be in NZ.......... I can remember while in sa any where I went you always look for escape route the whole day at home at work when you go to sleep......it was ongoing......when you go to the shop you have to find creative ways to hide you money cell ect jut to have n nice shopping experience. it was a constant worry about everything. now I can carry a hand bag or just put my stuff in my pockets. they only worry is to stick to our budget because it so nice to go shopping.

We went to bed a few time and the next morning we found out that we forgot to lock the doors..... out car is not locked most of the time mike just leave the keys of his work van in the ignition......as they say in NZ now worries.

So I hope you guys that still there get over here soon we are waiting
