Thinking of Moving to South Africa- Advice?

Hi!
I was thinking of moving to SA for a few months before having to return to Canada for Post-Grad studies in September (currently in London). I know there is an agency affiliated with the government that can help you but i was thinking of doing it on my own. I feel that the best way for me to experience the country is to actually move there for a short period of time. Any suggestions as to how, or which websites to refer to in order to find a place to live!?!

Thanks!

I am thinking of doing the same thing but I want to know a little more about South Africa. How is it there and what is it like job wise? Is it a wise idea to, to move there?!

Hi I am not able to offer any assistance to you about work in the label industry in SA, however I am contemplating a move back to SA after 16 years in the US. I have been told by most people that I must be out of my mind to want to take my wife and 3 children back to a third world county when I live in the best country in the world. I am hoping to move back in July of 2004 myself, I go in January to scope and plan a bit. Perhaps we can stay in touch and help answer some questions. I have lived here and enjoyed it, however I miss the simple life of home. I hope your plans of going back will turn out well.
