Hi,
I am currently living in Cape Town, but have long overstayed my visa here in SA. I would like to visit a friend who is soon moving to London. I'd like to take a nice long (2-3 months) visit. I will stay with her in London and she will help me with the cost of plane tickets, etc.
I've heard that I'm unlikely to get a tourist visa to be able to visit the UK. Why? Is this true? Can anyone advise me who is a Zimbabwean and has successfully (or unsuccessfully) obtained a tourist visa for the UK? I will go back to Harare to apply for the visa, but have heard that they just don't give many tourist visas to Zimbabweans.
Thanks!
