New Dinosaur Found in South Africa – Time for Dinosaur Safaris?

November 12th, 2009 by admin

A new dinosaur species has been discovered in South Africa (well, new isn’t very accurate, it’s about 200 000 000 years old). I’m not a dinosaur person, and I won’t go in too much technical details about this discovery, but I will share my immediate thoughts.

They claim it is a missing link, though, by they I mean the media. Scientists don’t like to use that term, unless they’re looking for PR. But the scientists do say that it is an important discovery to further understand the transition from small-ish two-legged dinosaurs to massive four legged monsters like this guy:

Where the Hell is Matt? -An Epic 5 Minute Travel Video!

October 15th, 2009 by Hakon Kavli

This is the story about Matt Harding, who’s 5 minute travel video has been viewed by twenty five million people on YouTube, and is impossible not to love. As an Africa Travel Blog I should also mention that during these 5 rich minutes he manage to feature eight African travel destinations which include Zanzibar, Mali, Madagascar (x2), Zambia, Morocco and South Africa (x2). It took him 14 months to create the video, and he visited 42 countries all over the world in it’s making.

It’s not much more to say other than: “Please watch this video”. It gave me the goosebumps and made my fiance cry (!). And I wish to say “thank you” to the two South African guys who walked into the store where I work yesterday and showed this video to me. I have watched it countless times since then.

Zimbabwe Replaced Zim Dollar with USD & ZAR – Start of the Recovery?

August 18th, 2009 by admin

Zimbabwe has recently replaced it’s disastrous own Zim Dollar with the more stable (massive understatement) American Dollar and South-African Rand. The reason is, as you all know, the apparently infinite inflation that has driven the local currency into a deep hellhole. So the question is if this change is going to help Zimbabwe become the bread basket of Africa as they once could call themselves? And as a traveler, there are other interesting questions popping up as well: Will this make it easier to travel in Zimbabwe? Will the money you spend in Zimbabwe benefit the people or the corrupt government? How can you make sure your spending helps Zimbabwe get back on track?

The Africa Adventure is Closer to Reality

View over Cape Town and Lions Head from Table Mountain

View over Cape Town and Lions Head from Table Mountain

Approximately six months ago my girlfriend, Eleyce, asked me what I thought about going back to Cape Town, South Africa, for grad school. This was exactly one year after we left Cape Town last time, and we both felt more than ready to return to our favorite city. So, not surprisingly, I immediately said yes to her suggestion and soon after we applied for our masters programs at the University of Cape Town. And last week I got the message I had been waiting for: I am accepted for admission at School of Economics, UCT. Eleyce was already accepted for the masters program in International Relations, so we could finally start planning our next step in life!

Who Won South Africa’s Election?

April 23rd, 2009 by admin

– UPDATE– All votes have now been counted and it is now clear who won the South African election. ANC with Jacob Zuma won 65.9% of the votes, which is a huge victory, but not as huge as some expected. The ANC did not get the 2/3 of the votes as they hoped for and would have needed for the mandate to change the constitution. The DA got 16.66% of the votes.
