The Otter Trail - Eastern Cape - South Africa - Part 1.
Where do I begin... This was the most physically challenging trek I've done to date, I think possibly due to me being 5ft'4", having an 18kg back pack, it being 30+ degrees and the constant ascents and descents. However, I loved every minute of it and when we crossed the end, I just wanted to do it all over again. I can't describe what a special and epic trail this is, and if you get the opportunity to do it - then do it without hesitation! The absolute beautiful thing about

Cape Town - South Africa

This city is in the Northern part of South

Kruger Park - South Africa
So my trip to Kruger National Park was quite a last minute one with family and friends - and I really had no idea what to expect. On arrival I got out the car and walked out near to some elephants completely unaware this is NOT what you should do whilst on safari. Around wild animals...I was THAT tourist that got tutted at. I had never been 'on safari' and wasn't really sure what you are supposed to pack. Some sites have pools, some don't, but mainly you will be in a car or a
