South Africans Abroad
Hosted by Warren Burley, South Africans Abroad is a conversation about life after leaving home. This podcast sits at the intersection of personal narrative, professional reinvention, and cultural reflection, capturing the nuanced reality of building a life in a new country. Episodes feature candid interviews with South Africans who have relocated for career opportunities, family, or a fresh start. Their stories go beyond the simple success narrative, delving into the practical hurdles of visas and banking, the emotional weight of distance from family, and the subtle, everyday moments of disorientation and discovery. Listeners gain a unique perspective on how identity evolves when you are no longer living where you were shaped, exploring how heritage informs new beginnings. It’s for expats seeking resonance in shared experience and for anyone curious about the complex trade-offs and unexpected joys of a global life. Through these personal accounts, the series paints a collective portrait of adaptation, resilience, and what it means to carry South Africa with you into the wider world.
