Thru the Lens: Drakensberg National Park, South Africa

It’s difficult to take a bad photo in the beautiful (and UNESCO listed) uKhahlamba Drakensberg National Park in South Africa. There’s really not much I have to say other than that I wish I spent more time there! It was one of my last stops in the country before catching a flight to Amsterdam. Anyhow, I hope you enjoy the photos and hopefully you’ll put Drakensberg National Park on your must-see list!
