A while ago, we joined the Cat Assistance Team (CAT, for short) to help feed and provide medical help to cats in the township areas around George. @slang83 (the photographer) also wrote an article about the NGO and their work. And we got to cuddle some beautiful and well loved kitties! This day was the perfect example of immersing yourself in a story - getting involved as a volunteer, in order to write from your personal, authentic experience. #journalism #catgardenroute #george #spca #traveljournalism #environmentaljournalism #animalcare #catlovers #ngo #cats #kitty #animalrights #animallovers #feedingcats #gardenroute

#Throwback to exactly a year ago when I spent a month with my very first travel and environmental journalism student, Anisa from Singapore! Your passion for the environment remains a true inspiration.

Anette, the beautiful loggerhead turtle at Two Oceans Aquarium in Cape Town. The two of us had a staring contest through the glass of the ocean exhibit. I lost, obviously. Anette was rescued last year in July. The NSRI found her tangled up in a fishing net on the beach. She's recovering from a digestive issue, making her too buoyant - she now happily swims in the aquarium's ocean exhibit, still under veterinary supervision. #seaturtle #conservation #twooceansaquarium #seaturtleconservation #plasticpollution #loggerheadturtle #ocean #marinelife #capetown #travelsouthafrica #environmentaleducation #environmentaljournalism #fishingnetpollution #marineconservation #aquarium #staringcontest
