  • In this, the third episode of the Botswana series, I continue my solo journey into the the Central Kalahari; where I share intimate game viewing experiences and bake my own bread. But the next days plans get cut short as I need to turn tails and run away from a massive impending dust storm!
    With no guaranteed place to sleep, I hold thumbs that everything works out.
