As this is my first feature for Adventure Afrika, the mere thought of an adventure that had to be turned into an article to take you – our readers – along for the ride was nerve wracking… to say the least! I knew that I would need to find a fine balance between “there’s too much to say” and “I’m at a loss for words”.
However, as we jumped into the Kia Sportage, in Kempton Park, I felt in my gut that a lot was going to be said about this adventure. From the very first moment it was that perfect balance I was hoping for. Just like the Sportage, our adventure was a mixture of speed, enjoyment and wonder. Our Kia adventure proved that this area is anything but the (s)lowveld, as busy city slickers sometimes describe it.
