Now, put your safari hat on and watch this epic video:
I do not appreciate the negative video on our former President. I do not htink it has its place on your professional blog. Other than that, great job!
Good point. The video is actually a remnant from the earlier days of the blog, and I think you are right: it might be time for the blog to loose it’s baby humor and grow into a more professional blog. Though, I do not think the video is negative, it’s a celebration of our leaders’ human sides!
Otherwise, thank you very much for the nice words! It means a lot, coming from people in the travel industry!!
PS: The video will now be replaced with one that’s appropriate for this blog.
Follow my experiences (Beginning May 22nd), travels, photos and alleged adventures as I spend time in Kenya and Tanzania this summer.
Hi Guys,
My name is Deidre`. My husband and I love travelling in the Southern parts of Africa and we’ve been doing so for the past 16 years. We run an IT consultancy firm and things can become quite hectic.
We’ve promised ourselves that we would try to maintain a balance between work and play, and so we often connect to the vagabond spirit in us and simply get in the car and go where the open road takes us.
Our highlight of the year is going on the Kruger National Park trails where we are able to get far away from the rat race and everything else (including cell phone reception) and immerse ourselves in the bush and its way of life. A group of six of our closest friends joins us and we spend three days hiking in the Kruger, accompanied by two senior trail rangers. It’s a great way to re-kindle old friendships and catch up on old times. And silently walking in the bush forces you to do some introspection and get your priorities right. Some of my greatest ideas have come from these hikes!
I’ve started a website about the Kruger Wilderness Trails at http://www.africaskyblue.com where I’ve uploaded some trail videos and photos. My husband Arno has also written some stories about our experiences if you are interested.
We hope you find the stories and videos interesting, please comment if you do (or if you don’t, I guess).
Friendly African Blessings
Deidre` Joubert
