ABOUT US

Our story so far ...



​Alan McSmith

"For 37 years as a wilderness guide, i have spoken of a deeper meaning of nature. To share what is normally unseen, beneath the surface, in the silence. Perhaps these are the spaces we need to explore in our modern world: to innovate inspiration in our lives. African wilderness has so much to offer this process. It is within these ancient landscapes that the human being emerged. It is home. Therefore the conservation of her wildlife and traditional leadership wisdom is of global significance.

​Sarah McSmith

"Africa and Africanisms are in my blood. As is care for our natural world and people. My life has been about sharing messages of love and Ubuntu. These values personify what leadership is, and how we can practically and functionally apply inspiration in our life. Cynics may disagree but Ubuntu is not dead nor dormant, it is very much alive. Visit any rural African community to re-discover the currency of kindness. Paid in empathy and respect. Love.
