Favorite Places I've been so far

1. Ponte De Ouro, Mozambique of course!

2. Khama Rhino Sanctuary in Serowe – about 4 hours northeast of Gaborone. We stayed in a beautiful chalet on the reserve and enjoyed three game drives at sunrise, afternoon, and early evening! All the pictures in this post are from the Rhino Sanctuary!
