About Us

We are a husband and wife team who want to tackle the world one destination at a time. We are constantly looking for new ways to enjoy our beautiful country, while bringing that same beauty to the rest of the world!

About Our Passion

Below are some pictures of us with the majestic Sabakwe who, for those who enjoy good South African liquor, is the face of Amarula. It has always been an utter and total pleasure to meet this wonderful and majestic yet calm and gentle animal. Those who know us, know that we are absolutely enamoured with elephants and they really do form a very important part of our lives, which is why we do what we can for the elephants of the Jabulani herd, situated at the Hoedspruit Elephant Rehabilitation and Development (HERD) centre in Hoedspruit. More information about them is available at https://herd.org.za/. Also, make sure to follow them on Instagram and Twitter.

About This Blog

Based on the above, you are probably thinking that we post about our travels and other adventures. You are 100% correct, but we also post about the kit we use, the tech we use to get our photos, as well as some other things for the more technically inclined/nerdy!

You can find our travel posts here and our tech-related posts here.

Finally, if you simply cannot get enough of our pics, videos or general vibe, you can follow us on Instagram @DearSouthAfricanDiary.

We sincerely hope that you enjoy our content as much as we enjoyed making it!
