My dear, they need to come and see, and stop fretting from afar
Honestly, it is so safe here
I wonder if it’s small patches that give the whole area a bad reputation? That’s how it is in some other countries. I find that people always exaggerate dangers, though it’s always good to be careful anywhere, some places more than others.
Well, I think it is the small patches. More so before now that area was extremely dangerous but that was way before I was born.

Oh why is that? Do you look different?
my biggest hesitation about Africa is that I look different so even if the bad guys are a tiny tiny minority maybe they target us, just because we don’t understand the terrain as well. But I will have the hive community to help me learn!
im sure if I go it will be fine! I just need to keep my guard up (even when visiting my hometown) because I currently live in the safest country in the world
