I will forever be humbled by the number of people who have been willing to openly share their stories with us since we arrived in South Africa two months ago. . This is Peter Khube, our group’s guide at Robben Island. He became a political prisoner on the island at age 18 and served 13 years of a 15 year sentence. Our time with him was a beautiful moment of pause in which he challenged us all to consider the quiet, difficult, messy but crucial process of forgiveness. He now lives on the island alongside the ex-warders who (for a time) perpetuated the very same system that robbed him of 13 years of freedom. Thank you, Peter, for sharing your story and your time with us. . “As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn’t leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I’d still be in prison.”- Nelson Mandela . #tellyourstory #consciousliving #robbenisland #southafrica #nelsonmandela #capetown #nothingisordinary #honestframes #presentoverperfect #empowerothers #travelafrica #robbenislandprison #robbenislandtour #discoversouthafrica #exploresouthafrica #travelphotos #westerncape
Yesterday our safari @arathusa_lodge came to an end. I can’t put into words how grateful we are to have had this experience. Both M and I agree that this will be an adventure about which we will reminisce for years to come. In short, if a safari in South Africa is at all on your bucket list. Do it. Go. I promise it will be worth every penny. . A huge thank you to the welcoming and knowledgeable staff at Arathusa Safari Lodge. You made us feel right at home and exceeded every expectation we had. Also a very special thank you to our ranger, Caltan, and our tracker, Reif. This trip would not have been the standout experience that it was without your expertise and hard work. . #nothingisordinary #iamnotlost #womenwhotravel #dametravels #sheisnotlost #presentoverperfect #tellyourstory #authenticliving #consciousliving #lightworker #prettylittletrips #flashesofdelight #honestframes #girlsborntotravel #darlingescapes #globebelletravels #bellisima #theglobalgirls #mapsandmuses #instapassport #forbesttravelguide #femmetravel #sightsee #wanderlust #theeverygirltravels #sabisands #arathusasafarilodge
And we’re off! Heading out on our first Safari today! Excited to escape the city for a bit and experience South African wildlife up close. Has anyone else ever been on one?

“Whatever it is, it comes over them quietly: a sudden drowsiness, a closing of the eyes. Most of the victims are found in their beds”- Karen Thompson Walker . I can’t remember the last time I fell in love with prose so instantly. The Dreamers is definitely a welcome shift from my usual thriller read (for now) but so glad I took a chance on it. Karen Thompson Walker creates a world that is as haunting as it is enchanting. I can’t wait to see how this one unfolds✨ . #thedreamers #karenthompsonwalker #bookcoverdesign #womenwhoread #bookworm #readersgonnaread #bookbabe #booksparks #booknerd #booksofig #bookstagram #readersofinsta #bookish #bookishgirl #bookishlove #junereads #bookrecommendations #bookaholic #summerreads #summerreadinglist #instaread #acolorstory #photooftheday
