living in Africa
Anyone have tips on where a single US person might feel comfortable
living permanently in Africa? I'm thinking somewhere in N. Africa or Namibia to keep out of the rain, but would like some advice in order to avoid incurring great expense in 'scoping out the area. Would like to have some prior knowledge so as not to experience again the expense, discomfort, and disappointment which I felt on a recent trip to Western Australia for scouting purposes. I do have to have some concern about cost of liviing and think of a small dwelling or caravan in a semi-rural area as best possibles. Some decades ago I lived for a couple of years in Uganda and remember Jinja, Mubende, Ft. Portal nostalgically, but doubt that, even rain aside, they'd be possible living sites today. I'd be grateful to receive any information offered. |

I lived in South Africa for 1 year. in Nelspruit. I was working for a
Canadian Company and found it great. It has big cities and great wilderness and outdoors. Two worlds in one. Rob "Larry Kingman" wrote in message ...
