As your time in Africa draws to a close, we hope that you allow yourself that last moment to linger…
Recalling the liquid sunsets of yesterday, know that your footprints now lie on ancient elephant paths. May you never forget the profound sense of space and the calm rhythm of this natural world. And so we say “Go well” but not Goodbye because, as R. Elliot rightly said, “If you only visit two continents in your lifetime, visit Africa – twice!”
