Sawubona Magazine – February 2013 – Tembe Elephant Park
My three page article in South African Airways' inflight magazine on Tembe Elephant Park - one of the wildest, and least known of South Africa's reserves, and one of my favourites.

My article for the Spring 2012 edition of Wild Magazine attempted to portray the effect that African wilderness can have on people.
