Hello fellow explorers! Dropping by to announce our new project, Write/Peace, has just been accepted by Kickstarter, an online crowdfunding site for creative projects.
An overview of the project >> A specially selected team of writers will work with journalists from around the world to explore and write about important trends in tourism and how these trends impact social and economic lives both locally and globally. Together, they will create a series of long-form, narrative stories that will be published over the course of one year. The aim of these stories is to promote a greater understanding of how the six-trillion-dollar Travel and Tourism industry impacts local societies and the global economy.
Any and all support is greatly appreciated. If you like what you are reading here and want to learn more, please take a moment to review our Kickstarter project page: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1501131842/write-peace
And of course, join us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/WritePeace/info
Thank you, happy travels!!
Feedback is always welcome, feel free to PM me directly.

For those of you who haven't seen it, we're running the award winning Gina Sandoval documentary "Timmy Wheels" at The World on Wheels today. It's a short doc featuring my sometime partner at the blog, and the inspiration for it, my son Tim. Bring some popcorn and enjoy the show (by the way, he's still available for your voiceover needs): http://tinyurl.com/y5p4l34
Thanks Barbara and Tolene
Tolene the Van der Merwe sounds very Afrikaans. You’re not a ex pat by chance? We had a very successful fund raising event last, largely due to the support of the Safari Industry role players. We can’t thank them enough for opening their hearts and pockets to fund ongoing projects to save Rhinos.
Wilderness also contributed a large sum of money in conjunction with EcoTraining to support the ear notching project in the northern part of Kruger as well as the DNA project. Hopefully the DNA samples will help Identify poachers at the point of sale (it’s difficult to link the killing to the buyers at this stage, but we are getting there)
Glad to hear that so many people are doing good things to help.
