This was by far one of the most incredible journeys I've ever taken. Three weeks traveling through Africa from south to north, taking in South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Kenya & Ethiopia. The diversity of experiences was amazing; from the people and the wildlife to the urban cities and natural wonders. Africa stole my heart and took my breath away. I fell in love with its beauty, honesty, spirit and adventure. I cannot wait to return to Africa; there is so much to experience!

After a really busy first few months of the year at work, I needed a break - somewhere out of the country, and to a country I'd never been to... but somewhere relatively close. The only answer was Belize. And the fact that a quick trip into Guatemala to see Tikal could be easily done just sealed the deal. The only problem was I had 4 days to book everything, pack, and go!!!
