    • We all have heard the horror stories about how dangerous South Africa is... now I was amoung the very worried before I landed in this unknown country. My fears were quite unfounded, this country was amazing and as safe as any other country I have been to. I would not walk around in Edmonton in the middle of the night, so why would I do it in Johannesberg. Common sense goes a long way, just use your head and you should not have too many problems. Now with that said, bad things happen everyday, sometimes they happen to you, sometimes they dont. I have had my car broken into more times in Red Deer than I did in RSA, so go figure hey!
