Your Rock Star for the Perfect African Adventure

My love for animals led me to study Field Guiding, which opened the door to the incredible world of overland adventure travel.

With 25 years of experience, my passion is ignited by sharing the sheer joy of Africa, from seeing its magical highlights to chatting with a local fisherman on the shores of Lake Malawi. I live for connecting open-minded, adventurous people with the continent I love.

One of my most incredible memories comes from Etosha National Park. After a long day of searching for animals with little luck, we pulled up to one last waterhole. The sight was like a scene from a movie: zebra, kudu, elephants, and more were all gathered. As we watched, a huge pride of lions and even a cheetah emerged from the crowd.

It was a spectacular reminder that in Africa, the most amazing surprises often come when you least expect them.

My Dream African Adventure

My dream trip would take me through East Africa, starting in Nairobi, Kenya, and exploring the vast plains and incredible wildlife encounters the region is famous for.
