    Moved from South Africa to the Netherlands about 2 years ago, I have gotten so used to the infrastructure I have a mild panic attack any time i think about how on earth I would get from a hotel to a super market if I go back to visit Cape Capetown South Africa.

    I have gone from desperately fighting that I need the best car and I should be able to speed all I want to being happy to just hop on my bike and cycle to work never caring if there will be parking.

    This country may as well be a fever dream and some day soon I will wake up back home.

      please don’t wake up I want the chance to live there at some point in my life before everything in your dream reality is erased from existence 😭
