About me

Lived in Norway for apr 20 years, lived in South Africa for 6 months and I now live in San Diego, California.


I have traveled in most parts of the world, including most of Europe, 4-5 months in South East Asia (Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia), 6 months in Southern Africa including South Africa, Swaziland, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia, Kenya and Tanzania. 10 weeks in Central America, including Jamaica, Guatemala and Mexico.


Travel is my passion and work. I am also blogging about travel on the 4 Season Travel Blog and The Africa Travel Blog.


I work as a travel agent and in a travel store. Most of the time I’m working in the travel store, which means that I have the whole selection of Lonely Planet Guide Books at my fingertips all the time. Which is torture for a travel enthusiast, always dreaming about traveling somewhere!


Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have questions about travel in Africa or Scandinavia. I would love help you out.


Thanks!

    3 weeks is a nice amount of time for a safari and the garden route. I would not try to get much more packed into that time frame though....

    If your two pins are round, you are fine. If you have the American two flat pinned plug, you will need an adapter (with two round pins).

    Link Exchanage?

    Hi,

    Anyone here who would be interested in a link exchange with my Africa Travel Blog (www.theafricatravelblog.com)?

    I am only interested in linking with high quality sites related to Africa, where the link will appear in a sidebar (not a separate link farm / page).. In return I would link to your site / blog in my sidebar..

    Thanks, I look forward to hear from you!

    PS: So many amazing blogs here! Good job everybody!
