Hey dear,
I'm a South African citizen also. Met my husband in Jan this year, We just recently got married and living in Ohio. I was a bit disappointed with the foods since our brands totally differ from theirs. I immediately missed my rooibos tea. Lol. And they not familiar with using a kettle when making tea. Instead they use either small pots and place them on a stove or stove kettles that whistle when they boil. lol.
Anyways, Its pretty fun because I'm finally living with the love of my life. We submitted our documents through our immigration attorneys two weeks ago. and awaiting biometrics forms and interview. When we first met it was all rosy lol. I have never been married before in my life. And we tend to have challenges and fight at times. Its hard yes. But we love each other. I'm an IT Consultant and being at home is killing me. However, I do some part time work for my clients back at home, they don't pay much but I'm getting something at least. You'll love it here. Yes the people are extremely different, some are friendly, some are weird, just like back at home. I've learnt that people differ no matter where in the world you've been.
All the best with everything dear. Hope all works out for you.
