Excited but Nervous





The days are winding down until my departure to Africa this summer. I have an ungodly amount of school work to do and still have to move a few finals forward, but I think it should all work out in the end. I can hardly wait to start this internship for so many reasons. I know this will be the experience of a lifetime, even though it is a bit pricy. I am pretty positive I have all my expenses paid for including my plane ticket will send me on my way May 12th. The opportunities there are endless and I plan on make the most of each and every one I get!

Here is a link to the website of the game reserve I will be working on. My employer's name is Hannes Swanepoel. He owns the Mahlahla Game Reserve and it is located in the Limpopo region of South Africa. It looks like a very prestigious place that has some great hunting! If you haven't already heard of this place I'd check it out.

  3. The blog looks great Jordan! I love the pics you chose and the first post is informative yet genuine and from the heart. Sunday will be a tough day for me - mostly because I will miss you so much!!! I know that this experience will change your life forever - I am so proud of the man that you have become and cannot wait for this adventure to begin for you. Enjoy it and know that we will be anticipating every word and every picture of this incredible journey. AFRICA - I always knew that you would go there some day, ever since you were a little boy. Only a few more days for you dreams to come true!
