I have not done much traveling in South Africa. When I was there I was advised quite strongly about which areas were safe for me and which were not. The country I live in, even though I do not speak the language, is safe for me to go literally anywhere. I have been to the very poorest areas and I was treated well. There were no safety concerns at all.
As for earning in USD, I am retired and do not have an income anymore. I do understand the value of earning in USD and living in a country where that money goes much further. There are many such places. The country I live in is one example.
I'm curious though: If you have traveled all over the world and you earn in USD, why are you unable to stack much Bitcoin? World travel is not cheap.
I am glad that you're happy where you live. If South Africa works for you that's great.
