My itinerary for South Africa is starting to come together! I'm
psyched for Cape Town, and the chance to play some WPT events while in
the area... but the thing I'm looking forward to the most is the once in
a lifetime opportunity to go on an African safari!
I'll be
staying at an amazing lodge in South Africa for the duration of my
safari trip there. Here are a few pics of how to live luxxx while on
safari. For those of you who are like "whoa... she is actually coughing
up the money to stay somewhere luxxx..." don't be fooled. A big thanks
to Gary at
ShuffleUpPoker.com for providing us with this amazing trip package!
The lodge and the park surrounding it have a ton of authentic
experiences to take in while I'm there. Some of the cool activities I'll
get to do while I'm there...
... game drives...
... ride an elephant...
... go on a hot air balloon safari...
... or get in on an African drum circle at an evening bonfire.
It feels so amazing to know that I set out to achieve something in
poker, and that now I get to enjoy things that I've only ever dreamed
of. It's so surreal that I get to enjoy things that, for my entire life
(up until recently), I felt were unattainable. Getting the opportunity
to enjoy such experiences reminds me of what a lucky gal I've been, and
how my hard work wasn't being done in vain. I'm feeling grateful, more
accomplished and confident than ever. It's truly an amazing era of my
life.
I'll post my own pics in a few weeks once I get there!! Yay!
