Tony Park I discovered Africa late in life - when my wife, Nicola, and I first visited from our native Australia. We were hooked immediately. I don't think you have to be born in a place to love it. When I'm not working as a freelance journalist, I'm writing novels set in Africa.

Johan Anderson Sometime during my birth I must have swallowed a feather because I seem to have a talent for flying without an engine. To fly like a bird and see what they see, to feel what they feel has been my passion for more than 20 years - it is no surprise that my greatest joy in life is to share that experience with people.

Scott Ramsay Howzit! That's "hello" in South Africa, my native country. I work as a photographer and writer, and when I'm not in Cape Town, I travel to those wild and beautiful places that make Africa unique. At the moment I'm travelling around Zimbabwe and this blog provides snippets of random info, photos and video from my travels in this great country. Internet connections are unreliable in Zim, so content is uploaded when possible!
