22 years in South Africa, of which a glorious 17 years were spent living in the Western Cape. Beach, surf, mountains, wine, what more could one want? It was perfect. But, I DID want more. Or at the very least, I wanted a change.

So I said goodbye to my home, my family, my friends, my job, and set off on a 3900km journey in my trusty little 1998 VW Golf Chico, in order to start a new chapter in my life. I was chasing a dream 5 years in the making...

I was going to be a bush pilot in Botswana.

Photo 1 - road trip via Cape Agulhas
Photo 2 - Border crossing (took all of 10 minutes)
Photo 3 - +-100km outside of Maun, the Golf had had enough; overheated and low on oil, I gave it a break and used the opportunity to take photos
Photo 4 - Nothing beats an African Sunset. Except for an African Sunrise
