I am using this title because "Out of Africa" is one of my favorite movies. After watching it many years ago, I knew that someday I wanted to visit Africa. Last year, I finally made that dream come true.
I joined a 15-day road trip that started in Cape Town, South Africa and continued through:
-Hluhluwe, Eswatini
-Matsamo Village, Eswatini
-Kruger National Park, South Africa
-Johannesburg, South Africa
-Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe
-Kasane, Botswana
-Back to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe
-Back to Johannesburg, South Africa
The trip took me through four countries and several national parks. It was truly an amazing journey.
My posts will focus on the beautiful landscapes and national parks I visited, as well as the bond I developed with the group of people I traveled with during those two weeks.
Although my visit did not include seeing the famous large-scale animal migrations often shown in documentaries, I still had the opportunity to see many different species in their natural local environments, which was a unique experience in itself.
I did not have much opportunity to interact closely with local people, nor did I experience of using any public transportations since this is entirely guided tour traveling with coach and few intercity by air.
Through my journey, I observed the tremendous contrast in wealth in cities such as Cape Town and Johannesburg in South Africa and well developed and the rest of the countries much poorer and underdeveloped in comparison.
