Working with the young orphaned animals, helping to provide their day-to-day care, was a truly unforgettable experience. Seeing wild Lions, Leopards, Elephants (and many more) up close on safari was fantastic, surpassing all my expectations.

I booked great accommodation in Malawi (Nkhata bay) through the website. The fact that the band 'Beat Life' were there some of the time (before performing at the Lake of Stars festival), made it so interesting and lively.

The most exciting part was eeing the big 5 in Ngangongoro; watching a leopard hunt in South Luangwa..A great way of seeing a lot of different places and trying out a lot of things in a relatively short period.
