Welcome to Africa!!!

Guess what?! I’m in Africa again!!! What else is new. LOL! South Africa has become one my most favourite happy places. I feel safe here, adventurous and looked after by the sunshine. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the culture is vibrant, the people are wonderful and the landscape is a vision in itself. I have some incredible friends here and I’ve made it my goal to come back regularly for a visit, and spend time getting inspired by the earth and its magnificent beauties.

**Ahem, all the while dodging the Canadian winter.
HELLO WARMTH!
Please be my friend forever!!!

This year, my family decided to spend three weeks with me, coming to Africa for the first time! I prepped an amazing adventure for my dad, mom, sister and I, where we spent 5000 kilometers on a road trip across the wilderness. Along the journey we explored National Parks, wild animals, beautiful beaches, and countrysides full of treasures hidden in the mountains.

Heading to South Africa? Here are some destination ideas.

Naturally I vlogged about the whole trip. 🙂 Again.. What else is new!? LOL  I believe that filming everything is the BEST thing you could ever do — especially family vacations!! It becomes such a gift that you can treasure forever. Photographs are important too, but videos… They take you back to specific moments in time and capture the TRUE essence of life as it was in that moment.

**On a shameless side note, did you know that I offer video editing for family vacations? If you have footage from an old vacation that you’d like turned into a full length feature, learn more here.

Otherwise, please feel free to sit back, relax, and follow along our journey!
