Show Notes

Part two of our journey following the lives of this amazing pair of local heroes in tourism in Africa.

Towards the end of John’s proud career working at Camp Okavango, he mentored his nephew as he began his career in tourism. We hear more from his nephew, Mc Odumetse, about his early days coming into tourism as a barman to becoming Operations Director of one of the most successful safari groups in Botswana.

We chat more with Mc and his amazing uncle John about the early days of life in the Okavango Delta and their stories and love for the place.

Two great people showing the story of low-impact responsible tourism on the precious ecosystems but importantly the lives of the citizens of Africa.

Thank you John and Mc!
