Well, I've left Klipkop. Crazy! I spent 4 days in the Drakensburg Mountains, which were beautiful. I did some mountain hiking and went horse back riding as well which was fun. I took the Baz Bus from Petoria to the Drakensburg, but then when I went to catch it onwards to Cape Town (via Durban and Port Elizebeth) in Mooi River (Drakensburg region) they had left without me even though I was there early! They're re-embursing me for this. But I had to spend t...

Well, tomorrow is my last day here at Klipkop. I take off early sunday morning to meet up with the Baz Bus (check it out at www.bazbus.com). I'm in the Drakensburg Mountains for 4 days. Which should be really cool. There is a world hertiage site near by with San rock paintings which is wicked!! I'm going to do some hiking, rock climbing, horseback riding, and plenty of vegging :) After that I'm heading to Cape Town, once again on the Baz Bus, with mad...

Yesterday Claire, a lady that has come to stay at Klipkop for a few weeks/months, and I went to the Lion Park, about an hour and a half from here. It was wonderful!

I have some really cool videos from it as well but I'll probably wait until I'm home to upload them ...

I wish there was a way for me to put into words how amazing everyday is. There just aren't words. It's surreal. Sublime. Euphoric. It's like a fairy tale. A dream. Cloud number nine if you will. Someone told me that once you start travelling "it's so easy to forget all of this" (sitting in Canada). It's so true. Traffic, gossip, stress, tv, hollywood, rushing around, the rat-race in general is like a memory that only comes to mind wh...

So this past weekend was a long weekend for me, I had friday and monday off. On saturday morning I got up at 4am to get into Petoria to catch a bus to Hazyview, about 6 hours away. It is right outside of the southern area of Kruger National Park. It is one of the most famous Game Parks in the world (a "safari" if you will). Very popular since it has the Big 5. The Big 5 are lion, buffalo, leopard, elephant and rhyno. From sat-monday I stayed at a backpa...
