He said the calm environment made him understand why many people struggle to leave after building a life in the country.“Before coming to America, my plan was simply to spend a few years here, then head back home and enjoy life. But look at what I found here,” he said.He added that while nothing could replace one’s homeland, the quality of life in the US often influences people’s decisions to remain there.Makhloga also said professional opportunities and modern infrastructure were major factors behind that choice, arguing that they offer a level of convenience many immigrants value after settling abroad.Despite praising life in the US, he acknowledged the emotional connection people have with their native country, saying there is no substitute for one’s own home.
