Lioness




Title – Lioness
Date – April 2007
Location - Tanzania

This photograph of a wild lioness was taken from the safety of a vehicle, but it certainly still sends a shiver down the spine of anyone who understands even the basic inherent danger these animals pose to all they come across; be that antelope or humans. Beauty and the beast all rolled into one.

Understanding the dangers around you will allow you to reduce the risks you face when so far away from home. Beyond The Blue understands that for those people who lack experience of world travel there can be a lack of understanding of the dangers that are out there and complacency can step in very quickly.

Most people when on safari in Africa feel completely safe in the vehicle in which they are travelling and there is no real fear of the dangers just outside your window and this complacency can get you into serious difficulties.

Gap Year and Independent Travel Safety & Awareness workshop is designed to help individuals assess risk on every step of their way; through dynamic risk assessments, we help candidates to appreciate the importance of the decisions they make as they travel. When we cross the road we carry our a dynamic risk assessment by looking left and right, when in the heart of the Serengeti there are a few more considerations to keep in mind.
