After landing in #SouthAfrica, we took straight to the Garden Route on a #roadtrip (well, with a stop in #Stellenbosch first for some #wine). Along the way, we stayed in "farm" houses, learned what a #BRAAI was (and made our own not 1…2…or 3...but 4 times), saw two of the Big Five game, lounged on beaches,  experienced the day and night-life of funny places like Mossel Bay, and never learned to pronounce places like 'Knysna' properly. 

We hope this video inspires you to get out into the wild, wherever that may be.
