Saffa Life in Canada is a warm, supportive community for South Africans navigating life in the Great White North. Whether you’ve already swapped braais for barbecues, sunny skies for snowy winters, or you’re still in SA simply curious (and secretly Googling “how cold is -30 really?”) — you’ll feel at home here.
This space is all about sharing the real journey: the joys, the challenges, the immigration admin, and the little everyday wins that make life in Canada unique. It’s a place where people understand your jokes, your cravings, your culture shock, and can even tell you where to find decent biltong.
Whether you’re settled, fresh off the plane, or just exploring the idea of moving one day, you don’t need to figure it out alone. We’re all learning, sharing, and supporting each other, one snowy step at a time.
Who knows? Maybe this space will grow into more one day: cheat sheets, guides, even a virtual coffee meetup. For now, it’s about connecting and building community together.
