    16 June 2018 - By 

    As part of this instalment in Guests’ Corner, I chatted to Wild Wonderful World, led by Michelle and Grant, both passionate travelling conservationists, inspiring change from the ground up in Africa. You might have heard the expression, ‘Not all superheroes wear capes,’ – and when I think of Michelle Campbell and Grant Pengilly – enthusiastic wildlife conservationists who hail from South Africa – that certainly springs to my mind. You see, since November 2017, Michelle and Grant have been travelling around Africa, inspiring change, fighting wildlife injustice and educating communities.

    As part of the next instalment in Guests’ Corner, a local and international travel interview segment on Tamlyn Amber Wanderlust, I chatted to Dominique Heusdens, SA travel blogger and photographer at Dominique in the City. Having grown up in a minute, diamond mining town in Namibia, for Dominique Heusdens, her love of travel began at a tender age (like so many of us), as her family frequently travelled to Cape Town to stock up on goodies and necessities alike… She has fond memories of braaiing under the stars, and of endless roads flanked by changing, yet always beautiful, South African landscapes.
