Alta Fourie shared this photo of her home in Bloemfontein, South Africa.

“Although we have many problems, SA is not a shithole,” she told CNN over the WhatsApp messaging platform.
Ilza Roggeband woke up to the news about Trump’s comments on Friday morning and posted a picture of the beach in Bloubergstrand, South Africa, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) from Cape Town.
Maria Kipkemoi shared photos from Aberdare National Park – what she calls “my absolute favorite place in Kenya.” She describes it as a paradise – it grows the best potatoes, there’s a place called Elephant Hill (that looks like the ear of an elephant) and Mount Kenya is visible in the distance.

Kipkemoi said her country is beautiful and reckons that about 40% of Kenyans wear their flag as a wristband.

Andrew Pike spotted elephants at the Hluhluwe–Imfolozi Park in South Africa.
