There is so much about travelling, especially going to Africa, which changes one forever. A part of you becomes filled with an energy, once this happens, you embrace life one hundred percent. It is like being a kid again, trying everything for the first time, exploring and experiencing new adventures, taking ordinary life and discovering the extraordinary everyday.
