Far easier to get out when you have dual nationality like me.

I mean in terms of quality of life the US seems a lot better but I've heard really good things about the country in terms of the outdoors.

And something called a braai which is only lightly defined by google. Still can't find a definitive answer as to what that is.

A braai is a BBQ but far better.

It also depends on the person.

For some the focus of the braai is the food.

For others the focus of the braai is the warmth of the fire.

And with a braai you need a braaibrooitjie to really experience it

Some people don't keep the fire going after the boerie and rashers are ready... Those are braais I don't enjoy as much.

When the fire keeps going and you can chill around it and talk kak til late in the evening or til dawn that's a lekker braai.

Amen

Shame I'll never get to try it, don't think there's any South Africans in California. I don't think there's any good people in California

Pretty sure there must be at least one South African in California. We're everywhere.

True

There's probably a few somewhere but none I know.
There's Rhodies and South Africans everywhere.

Just walk down the street and scream some afrikaans words trust me. If you get moered thats probably a south African

I can't seem to find a definition for 'moered', help me out on that one

This is me and my boet having a kak braai back in 2015.

Didn't have any wood to use so I gathered twigs and branches from around the complex and managed to make it last long enough to cook the boerewors.

The fat dripping onto the coals caused the flames to char it a bit 😬

Man that looks fun as hell, why can't we have any cool food related traditions like that

Moered means that you get hit with fists

This is a potjie.

What's in it?

You need charcoal with a pot. Wood is kak for it

Basically alot of meat and vegetables

I made a biltong pot a week ago and damn that was the best thing ever

Biltong and macaroni pot

As for our wilderness it's very different from the US obviously.

Try biltong with bacon and a cheese sauce

In the US you call it man vs wild in south Africa we call it camping

Hahah lol

Loved this place.

It's Mountain Sanctuary Park.

Shame such a beautiful country is run by people like that. I'm glad we have some nice parks here in the US.
