MOST MEMORABLE TRAVEL EXPERIENCE
My husband and I like to challenge ourselves, and to finish up our round the world trip we completed a ten day trek to Everest Base Camp. It was both mentally and physically challenging but one of my greatest accomplishments to date. The simplicity of life as we travelled through the Himalayas was truly humbling, and to stand in awe of the world's highest mountain is something I'll never forget. Climbing Kilimanjaro is the next adventure in the pipeline.
My travel wish-list
I like to go off the beaten track and am not great at sitting still, so I'd love to complete a mokoro safari in Botswana. The opportunity to be up close with some of the beautiful wildlife the area has to offer sounds ideal, along with being able to decide what areas you can explore to make the trip personal and unique.
Favourite Lodge
Little Chem Chem in Tanzania looks fantastic - the remote location and authenticity are exactly what I like to experience from a trip.
Favourite Safari Animal
It has to be a giraffe. They are beautiful and elegant, despite being the tallest terrestrial animal.
BEST #MAHLATINIMOMENT
My best #mahlatinimoment was taking the Mahlatini flag to the roof of Africa. I climbed Kilimanjaro in 2019 and the support and encouragement from the whole team kept me motivated through the months of training, and of course they all joined in on the celebrations once I made it to the finish line!
