The weather is quite subtropical. It’s nice and warm for majority of the year and although we experience winter, our winter isn’t as harsh as experienced by the rest of the world. There is a lot to do in the city, as we have many different attractions and tourist spots. You may find a lot of homeless people on the streets but beware as the crime rate is quite high as well.

The city that I’m from is always clean and tidy, plus we also have a beach on which we can go to whenever summer season occurs. It’s the warmest place to be in the whole of South Africa and there are people who we call para people who in other countries are called hobos.

Durban is known for its scenery and beaches. Unfortunately, also for criminal activities. You encounter wealth and poverty, depending on the areas visited. The view of the harbour area is a sight to behold. Different foods for different cultures, something you have to sample.

Durban is a city full of mischief and wonder. You will most likely find a buzzing feel of excitement year-round, as well as beautiful weather for the most part. There unfortunately is quite a substantial amount of criminal activity in my city which is down to the high poverty rate, as well as the lack of education in some parts.
