Update

Hello everyone,

I know...I haven´t been really good at updating last few months. Since the beginning of the year it has been quite hectic, but in a good way. When I came back in beginning of January from a great tour in South Africa, I just had a few weeks time to plan for the Travel Convention MATKA 2013 in Helsinki.  That went all well and I can see that the interest for tours to SA is growing:)
After the travel convention I had just about 5 weeks to get everything organized with my new business. My new travel company is now registered since the beginning of the year, please check: www.africaexperts.fi  . I still have much work to do with the site,put in tour options, pictures etc....but slowly I will climb to the top of the mountain.
In March my whole family went to South Africa. Nico&the girls stayed in South Africa by Nicos family and  I had a tour to guide in Namibia,it was important for me that tour went well, and I had the most amazing group, thank you everyone taking part in the tour and making it so special, it was a joy to guide you all trough Namibia, into Botswana and to the mighty Victoria Falls. I did update on my Africa Experts facebook site during the tour, so please check here:

I will put in some pictures here also. Meanwhile you can enjoy some great pictures my guest Tomi Närvänen took during the trip: Namibian kiertomatka
It was nice coming home to Finland again as the sun was shining and days so much longer, what a change since beginning of March when we left...now I´m just waiting for the chilly mornings to get warm also and all is perfect:)
Im back at my homeoffice planning new tours for upcoming season. One new tour is to Malawi in September 2013, the tour will be on my website soon.
Other tours are a variety of South African tours ,Namibian tour, a Botswana Okavango Delta tour for October 2014, Kilimanjaro tour combined with safari in Tanzania, and new tours Im looking into are Madagascar and Rwanda Gorilla trecking, just think about looking into the eyes of a gorilla:)

Too all of you, travel safe and rememeber-life is a journey!

Love Jannika
