Aussie Escape Blogger Karen: Travelling South Africa

Hello fellow travellers
I am very passionate about South Africa and would rate it as the one of the most beautiful countries that I have ever travelled. My love for animals sent me to just about every game park in the country and still the leopard eludes me. Not once, but twice, I missed a sighting by the blink of an eye. The game parks and animals are incredible, apart from when you get chased by a big angry bull elephant - but thats another story. The Garden Route has some beautiful beaches and great hostels to stay and what can I say about Cape Town....Table Mountain is amazing. My hot tip when travelling to South Africa is to go to the Central Drakensburg, hike Cathedral Peak, go horseriding and go and see the Drakensburg Boys Choir. Even if you are not into that sort of thing, these boys will knock your socks off. South Africa is a must for every traveller and is very cheap once you are there.
