These 11 days went by too fast. I look forward to seeing you again. The experiences I’ve had here are phenomenal. The animals here are fantastic, the friendship is even better.

Thank you so much for everything. It was an amazing trip with unforgettable memories. I cant wait to plan my next trip back!! This time I will teach you some cooking the way we do in America. This trip was way too short! It went way too fast! I only shot one animal but it was amazing seeing so many beautiful animals. I think I can just stay and watch them and video tape. Thank you for all the memories and laughs. You guys are so wonderful. You must call when you come to the states. So we can treat you. Thank you so much ! Cant wait to see you all again soon!

I would like to say this trip was the best hunting trip I’ve ever been on. The game was fantastic, the rooms , food was outstanding. The best part of the trip was the family, made me feel part of their family. I really don’t know what you can do better. I’ve never seen better trackers! Thank you “Donkey”!
