We Moved from the US to South Africa with our 3 kids , we now live on $2500/M
Asa and Mrs. Z, a dynamic couple originally from Mississippi and Atlanta, share their inspiring journey of relocating with their three children across the African continent—ultimately settling in Cape Town, South Africa. With professional backgrounds in tax planning, cosmetology, wellness, and real estate, they’ve crafted a lifestyle rooted in family, freedom, and legacy.
In this episode, the Asanti family opens the doors to their oceanfront apartment in Bloubergstrand and reflects on their transition from the U.S. to Africa—highlighting the meaningful moments, practical decisions, and cultural connections that shaped their move.
