Happy Sunday Fellow Explorers! Come join us in an epic 60 days African expedition!
Imagine waking to a symphony of birdsong, sunlight warming the canvas tent. Stepping out, you're met by endless savanna, a vast stage where nature's drama unfolds. Witness a majestic lioness lead her pride, elephants ๐ฆ๐๐trumpeting as they bathe in ochre pools, or a leopard's mesmerizing gaze pierce the twilight.
In this raw, primal world, your senses come alive. You feel the thrill of the chase, the hush of anticipation, the raw power of existence. It strips away the noise, leaving you present, humbled, and deeply connected to the wild rhythm of life.
An African safari isn't just a trip; it's a transformation. It reawakens wonder, ignites respect for nature's delicate balance, and whispers tales of survival older than time. You return forever changed, carrying the echo of the wild in your heart ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ.
Big shout out to my newest top fans! ๐

This was a couple nights ago while en route to Yading, where the fabled Shangri-La is situated. Snow fell. Hard.
Our car, bereft of 4WD (disconnected) and chains, struggled to climb the icy mountain.
Good job our man Siong Loo was on hand, responding fast.
Whatโs not captured in the video is the semi trailer sliding down the mountain on the other lane, brakes locked, heading for us.
Fortunately, disaster was averted and all made it to the hotel safely.
