Lions, Tigers and Bears.... There are some myths about Africa that I am debunking in this episode. It's not to make anyone calling Africa a country feel bad. Rather, it's opening up the conversation about what one imagines when thinking of Africa compared to the reality on the ground. I cover the continent, the wildlife, the weather... If you are a curious adventurer, I think you will be intrigued to know more and if you have been here, I bet the Africa bug (harmless of course!) will bite again. Enjoy!

John Neelo is one of the heros in the conservation of African Wild dogs. He lives and works in the field in Botswana and I had the great pleasure to sit down and have this conversation about how John became a senior researcher on dog project, how the latest technology is helping to minimise human-wildlife conflict between the dogs (Africa's most efficient hunter) and villagers and their livestock, and how tourism can be a positive in the Wild Dogs' ensured survival. We are in the Okavango Delta of Botswana, one of the best places in Africa to see Wild Dogs, and the story is a good one. Enjoy my conversation with John Neelo.

I love Rwanda. Why? So many reasons... and not just because you can visit the endangered Mountain Gorillas in their beautiful home, guided by great people from a country that has overcome so much pain and loss through the power of forgiveness. ... But for all of those reasons too! Enjoy.

My walk around the gorgeous grounds of La Residence in the Cape Winelands of Franschhoek, South Africa with Edward Paul, more belovedly known as Uncle Eddie, gives a glimpse not only into his passion for the land: the old trees he planted, the olives and vineyard he tends, but also of his resilient spirit and the power to change one's life for the better. Enjoy my walk around with Eddie Paul.

In this episode, I explore this question of “Luxury” on safari based on answers of our clients over the years together with my own thoughts. As you will hear, the answers are often surprising! Enjoy!

If Victoria Falls has crossed your mind. Good. It is one of the more spectacular waterfalls on Earth. At high season one of the largest curtains of water falls over the edge, about over 500 million litres per minute. It's more than that though and this talk with Sara Gardiner explains why. Sara and her family have created a private haven for wildlife at their lodge on the river. It's a favourite of mine for sure and you will hear why! Enjoy our chat!

In this episode you accompany me virtually as I go through a typical day on safari in Botswana. From getting there, to the sundowners around the fire, to watching cheetah run, the day is full. And the best part - no two days are ever the same! Enjoy!

I met Waridi on a flying safari in Namibia. As we explored the most dramatic parts of Namibia's Skeleton Coast, sat side by side in the Cessna 210, on the roof of the landrover, chatted over sundowners in the red sand and oysters on the deserted beach (except for fur seals), we became friends. Her story of growing up in Kenya, leaving for Abu Dhabi, getting discovered and becoming a successful runway model in London, New York and now Berlin - is exceptional. It's one of courage, determination and - ultimately self-respect. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
