One of the strangest things about making friends with Australians is that, for the most part, they have never experienced the bush. When I start to talk about my bushveld adventures, I’m almost always met with blank stares. It’s only when I clarify that by ‘bush’ I mean ‘safari’ that I receive a nod of recognition.

It’s really special to be able to tell them about a part of the world of which they have very little knowledge. Something as simple as watching an elephant walk by, or seeing a pride of lions, would be a completely novel experience for them. It makes me even more grateful to have spent so much time in the bush, and reminds me the importance of never taking it for granted.

Of course, there are times I wish I could speak about the bush with people who also have experience with it. It’s difficult to describe just how special some sightings are - for example, seeing a pangolin, or watching a kill - to someone who has never even been to Africa. But for the most part, I have really enjoyed sharing stories of Africa to those who have very little idea of what a safari would involve.

I’d love to take my Australian friends back to South Africa one day, and to show them those things on safari that you just can’t find anywhere else. Whether it be seeing a giraffe, zebra, lion or rhino for the first time, or watching the stars on a clear night (there’s nothing quite as good as the African night sky), or braaiing on the campfire while the sounds of the bushveld echo across the darkness - there’s not much that would make me happier than seeing someone else experience those things for the very first time.

It’s been a while since I’ve been active on this page, but what better way to get back into it than with a catch-up from my most recent Mala Mala trip?
