Rough diving and new friendships

Thanks to the Chinese who had already finished most of the new road to Ponta we had quite an easy drive there. Except the last part where we had to drive in deep sand again but compared to the day before that was kindergarten. Diving in Ponta with Scuba Adventures on the other hand wasn’t […]

Breathtaking moments with a lioness and her three cubs

A hippo fighting three crocodiles and an animal from another world

While writing this blog suddenly a group of Pumbas followed by a group of monkeys passed by my little desk. Obviously not all animals are kept outside the camp. The monkeys I knew how to handle as this hasn’t been my first close encounter. Just hide all food and shiny things and basically anything valuable […]
