Africa

Photographs from our African trip to South Africa, Namibia, Victoria Falls, Botswana, Zanzibar, and Rwanda.

Meghan and I started talking about Africa as a travel destination a few years ago and when I decided to leave my job the timing was right to make the trip.

It would end up being the most planned trip that I’ve ever taken - and the most expensive - but it was worth all of the work and money. We had an amazing adventure exploring South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Tanzania and Rwanda and even managed to make it into Germany, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Brundi, Kenya, and the United Kingdom!

We can't wait to get back.

In the following albums I’ve weeded through the many photographs that I took to what I hope is the best and a decent representation of our trip. If you don’t want to look through all of the albums I recommend for you the Africa Highlights album where I’ve painfully cut the trip down to just 20 images.
