In and around the lodge

Elephants

Hoedspruit - Zuid-Afrika

Sander en Kim

Na een jarenlange voorbereiding vertrokken wij in oktober 2007 voor een reis van een jaar door zuidelijk afrika. In die 12 maanden wilden wij er bekijken welk land aantrekkelihk was om ons te vestigen. Sneller dan verwacht liepen wij tegen de perfecte locatie aan. En sinds 17 januari 2009 maken wij onze droom waar in Zuid Afrika: het runnen van Kurhula Wildlife Lodge. Gelegen halverwege Hoedspruit en Phalaborwa in het laagveld (aan de rand van het Krugerpark).
