Our Bush Christmas: Festive Snacks

The first rains have arrived, the bush is thick and green and we’re witnessing all the new life that appears at this time of year, it’s Christmas time! In celebration of all things Christmassy, we teamed up with Shara Barrell from Shara B Photography to create a Christmas shoot in the bush.

“So lovely, as if the contemplations of it could itself be enough to make you happy all your life.”

Karen Blixen

“Africa changes you forever, like nowhere on earth. Once you have been there, you will never be the same. But how do you begin to describe its magic to someone who has never felt it? How can you explain the fascination of this vast, dusty continent, whose oldest roads are elephant paths? Could it be because Africa is the place of all our beginnings, the cradle of mankind, where our species first stood upright on the savannahs of long ago?”
