Job Hunting in Botswana, Namibia or Tanzania?

Hello Guys!

I'm going to South Africa mid February to do a Caravan Rating and a Baron. Then I'm planning to do a job hunting nearby. I will surele go to Zambia try to get a job at Proflight as I have a friend flying there and with these 2 ratings, he advised me to come and visit. I'm now very close to 500 hours with a Multi engine with IR. I've done most of my hours on a Cessna 182 dropping skydivers.

I would like to go as well in Botswana, Namibia and Tanzania. But as I might be short on money, I might not be able to do all these countries. Where would you advise me to go first with my actual "qualification"?

My first choice after Zambia was Botswana as there are a couple of interesting companies as Mack Air using Caravan and it's very close to Zambia. But I've heard that there are more oportunities in Tanzania than in Botswana. So I'm a bit lost on my planning as I can't decide where to go.

Any advices would be great!

Thanks and happy flying!
