August 4th, 2011 at 4:41pm

For anyone who has ever visited Africa, the sheer, infectious ambiance is hard to forget. That feeling of being completely immersed in a place is hard to find, but somehow Africa just does it. Perhaps it's the unders...

Danger Ranger - Encounters with Deadly Beasts

Leafy south-west London might've been my birthplace but for the last 20 years I've lived and worked here in Africa and let me tell you it's a lot wilder over here. From dodging flying bricks in riot-torn early 1990s Johannesburg to running for my life from enraged elephant...

The adventure began at the crack of dawn on a Monday morning. As soon as my alarm went off I was up and ready to go. I dont think I have been that excited in a long time so this was already off to a good start. We made our way to Cape Town International where we caught our 06:20 flight to Joha...

Namibia is probably one of Africa's most striking countries in terms of landscapes; the ochre-red dunes of the Namib, the winding ravines of the Fish River Canyon, the stark and wild Skeleton Coast, the white-dust coated pan of Etosha, the watery oasis of ...
