“While crocodiles kill hundreds of people in Africa each year, the local people have learnt to live with the danger and often bathe in crocodile areas. This strikes me as reckless - yet if the people here were to visit London or New York they might wonder how people could possibly live with so much dangerous traffic careening around and all the cancerous pollution choking the air.” AfricaCrocodiles Book:Traversa Source: Traversa
“I follow the road south in darkness, the slight ocean breeze cool and refreshing, the moon on my left, the muted roar of the Benguela Current to my right; dead ahead, the Southern Cross hangs lopsided in a sky the colour of Indian ink. The stars tonight are extraordinarily clear; the Bushman call the Milky Way 'The Backbone of the Night'. An aeroplane in the night sky floats past, a lonely firefly exiled to outer space because of its abnormal size.” Milky WaySouthern CrossBenguela Current Book:Traversa Source: Traversa
