A call to South African Steemiarms
I have no idea of the best way to keep track of this list other than to post it here, hope the Seffricans will find it and that you will add to it as you notice people missing.
So far....
There are Steemians in this group who've confessed to being from Pretoria, Port Edward, Durban, Johannesburg...even Cape Town, which is weird, because they should be outside enjoying the snow. As a loyal Joburger, I refuse to post a gaspaciously beautiful photo of Cape Town (today, anyway) - I leave that to the denizens of the Slaapstadt.
But where's Waldo?
Cities and such
Where's PE (the big one, not Klein PE)? Saldanha Bay and St Lucia, are your lives so imbued with natural beauty that you have to spend your entire day outdoors enjoying the ridiculously great weather, breathtaking attractions and heart-thumping activities that you can't share a post with the rest of us once in a while? I'm just picking on you randomly. To be fair, let me go to the arty extreme, to the Karoo - Nieu-Bethesda, where are your posts on owls and life in the Mendocino of the Camdeboo?
And provinces?
All of Limpopo? The entire Free State? Mpumalanga, Northern Cape, Northwest...where are you? Let's face it, we even have a South African Steemian currently stationed on Marion Island (look it up), posting valiantly against all the efforts of the interwebs to stifle his comms, so where are the provinces?
South African Steemian meetups
As far as I know, and I hope you can update this with good news, we've had meetups in Johannesburg and Cape Town to date. Maybe there have been others - let's hear about them.
Drum roll...the list you've been waiting for
And caveat emptor, I am sure there are names missing from this list. Please check, add and suggest better ways of keeping track of each other. I keep this list in an Excel spreadsheet >gasp<. Surely, surely there's a better way.

Hi from Durban, the warmest place to be in winter :) I'm only 2 weeks old in the steemit world, super to see this group. Please add me, thank you!
Welcome, @lizelle! Will add you 😊
Hoe kan julle dan van DieBaasMan vergeet. 😝
Zululand here, where we don't ever see winter and it's always sunny. Richards Bay area.
I will go ahead and just follow everyone on the list so long.
Ek could never die Baas Man vergeet! Well, now that ek knows he exists.
And cool on following everyone - give me a few minutes to capture all the new names and I'll post a reply with an updated list....
And glad we now have northern KZN represented :-)
Hi please add my dad @bep as well.
Done!
And I look forward to what your dad has to say 😊
Do saffa's living abroad count?
Sure! Why not? If you want to join, what does it matter where you're living now? We have our fair share of furriners living in RSA on this list. For what it's worth, I'm one of them - a Canadian who's been living in SA for 20 years. It would be a bit weird if I arbitrarily said you can't join while I'm here, wouldn't it? Have put you on the Excel list and will post the update shortly.
@kiligirl my information came from @stephenkendal, I am sure you can connect with him as he got that information very fast, I replied to a post of his and a couple of minutes later I had the list I am sure he will be able to get you the whole of SA's list .
Great, @louiscpt, will check in with him tomorrow. Will be good if we can do as much as possible to make sure everyone heard about meetups in their areas. @themagus recently organised a meetup in CT - not sure if you went?
just steeming nothing more or else
OMG thanks @kiligirl this is super awesome vibe!!!! Great way of supporting fellow SA peeps on steemit!!
Hey there's quiet a few of us on here!!
And here's another one 😊😊
Adding you
Thank you very much!
Most welcome - have added you to the Excel list. Waiting for insights from the Great Ones on what to actually do with this list, other than collect more South Africans. Which is fun.
And another!
OK, I added you to the Excel list in the meantime 😊
Haha this guy!
I know I'm on the list but i'm part of the group above :)
@Morkrock and I are married, @heypapalegend and @morkrock work together, and @thedarksideshow is @morkrock s brother. Trying to get more of the fam on, but one already signed up and lost their password, so not much hope there LOLZ .
Perhaps we should start a tag... #teamsaffa ?
I just saw this! It didn't show up in my replies. #teamsaffa sounds like a hang of a good idea. How about I suggest it when I post the next update to the list?
Yes! Do it! 💓💓💓
👍🏼👌🏼😊
And now I know that @thedarksideshow is South African 😁
Yes he is. He's a bit quiet lol 🤐 Lives in Howick
Got it 😉
That's so cool....
Awesome :D Thank you for the shoutout <3
Plesier :-). A choice between your graphic and some beautiful shot of CT? Such an easy choice ;-)
