For over three decades as a wilderness guide and tracker, i have spoken of a deeper meaning of what nature represents to us. This in a humble attempt to share what may normally be unseen, what lies beneath the surface hidden from view. Or perhaps that what normally appears silent. I believe, that in our modern world, these are the very spaces we need to go to ... this to discover inspiration in our lives.
The 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 African wildlife is an issue of global significance for us all. This is what my story of stories is about. Alan / Old Bull |
