live in the light

Well here i am living this wonderfull beautiful life...blessed to have been raised in one of the most awesome natural places in Africa...Botswana.From childhood i have been graced with the presence of majestic lions, gigantic elephants and every other wild animal native to my homeland.Botswana is wild and i love it!!Here you can sit beneath a baobab tree and soak up the smell and sight of Africa.....funny when one thinks of their homeland when they are away,visions and smells bring back such strong nostalgia.Whenever i am away from Botswana for too long my heart begins to ache and i pine for it's naturalness found in no other place on earth...indeed the entire earth is beautiful and unique to itself...but roots....roots go deep and mine are in Botswana, Africa...as we say in Setswana...ke a go rata Africa......i love africa....I wish for you all to touch this stillness,naturality and peace..which will remain with you forever in memory.. when you see your first animal in the wild you will look around you and realise........we are just human...no more important and no less than our animals.....so visit Botswana, take photographs, get involved in the conservation programmes, and help us preserve this wonderful place,my home and its native cultures....blessed journeys to all.

history begins

some say that this is where the first people originated from, deep in the Kalahari desert.The san/bushman peoples are over 20 000 years old and embrace ancient customs of storytelling,living and surviving.To live beneath a sky of a billion trillion stars is awesome, and Botswana sunsets are unparalled .This is my home, this is where my heart is, this is where the desert changes into swamp and is the natural habitat for so many disappearing wild animals.Growing up, i have played with lion cubs, seen the big five time and time again(lion,elephant,buffalo,leopard,rhino)and walked the scorching sand of the Kalahari...for this i know i am blessed.Living in Botswana has instilled in me a great passion for outdoor adventure and all types of travel, the spirit is curious, the spirit is brave, the spirit never dies...Haribo!
