Posted on March 9, 2016 by Globe Runner

One of the downsides of living in the city is that you don’t always get to spend much time at one with nature. Breathing in the clean, fresh air and being able to marvels of the natural world all around is something many people take for granted. If you’ve been brought in the countryside then have moved to the big bad city, you may miss it. It’s good for the soul to spend some time in the great outdoors. It’s essential for a healthy mind and body. Getting in touch with Mother Nature helps keep things in perspective too. Sometimes we can get so swallowed up by our own worries we can forget we’re just small parts of a much bigger picture.

If you’re an animal lover, you may not even have room for a small pet in your apartment in the big smoke. So if you’re missing contact with some four-legged friends why not spend some time with some on holiday? From Swimming with Dolphins to Monkeying about with apes, you could spend some time walking with the animals. What could be better for something different to do on your vacation this year?

Passionate about preservation? Then why not visit the stunning wilds of Africa on a safari drive? You could walk amongst the elephants and see masses of cheetahs. Namibia is home to the largest colonies of wild cheetahs. They also have unique terrains, and you’ll get to see animals you’ve only ever seen in books or on tv right up close. It’s very humbling to be amongst such a variety of animals in their natural habitat.
