Photos: Sandton City (near Jo´burg) In South Africa

Funkboy u still in jourg? i stay in Rosebank just few walk to sandton mall.SA is a beautiful place,i schooled here in jourg

Hi natyykauchi,
I am travelling soon to study in South africa.In port elizabeth actually.whats it like studying there? is living expenses very expensive.I mean like food,clothes just basic expenses a student can budget for.
Thanks

Debouy

The only problem we have here in SA thats driving us nuts is the house rent,you may be living in a room with kitchen and toliet,bath and be paying about 1500rands thats about 28k in 9ger per month,the cheaper places are rough and ghetto and eveybad things happen there broad day light,But if you living in a school hostel thats cool and its very cheaper because you are a student.

As for food and other basic expenses thats not a problem,food in sa is cheap,you must always cook sometimes at home to save,fast food everyday like mcdonalds,KFC,NANDOS AND SO ON are waste of money.

9ger food here at 9ger resturant is little expensive buts its more better compare to fast foods that wont even filled the stomach.

if you are using a Study permit you can pick up part time jobs,after school hrs to sustain

Debouy,Port Elizabeth is one of the most laid back cities in South Africa,it is nicknamed friendly city  because people there are very friendly or windy cities for obvious reason.although the City is called PE the official name is Nelson Mandela bay.And comparing it to Cape Town or Joburg,PE is cheaper.

Please check the city website.

I know what you mean,most of the attack happened in the ghetto's of Joburg and Cape town,PE was never affected.And it is a thing of the past now.I think you will enjoy your stay there.Most spoken languages beside english are afrikaans(english,dutch,french,german and bantu mix) and Xhosa but everybody speak english as a second or third language.
Blacks in PE speak Xhosa(when you GREET some one you say SAWU'BONA).
And the woman there are off the hook.
