Dear {CONTACT.SALUTATION},

 

I hope you and your family are well.

You will forgive me if among this month’s stories I share the genesis and development of Kiserian Cottage & Bushcamp, a personal project of mine. Other stories include a roundup of Conde Nast Traveler reader’s top South African accommodations, Marcus Westberg’s take on Africa Park’s work in South Sudan, and more great work in Botswana on mitigating human-wildlife conflict.  

I hope you enjoy this month's stories – and look forward to hearing from you.

       

Yours,

 

Will Jones
Chief Exploration Officer
