While there was so many learning experiences cut short because of COVID-19. I am beyond grateful for the time I was able to spend in South Africa. Safaris might not be a part of the academic curriculum, but this last moment our group shared still taught us a lot. It taught us to be brave and to live life to the fullest because you never know when it will end. That day was full of laughter, happiness, as well as sorrow and tears. It is one of the last memories of Tembinkosi Qondela, one of our country coordinators, who unfortunately passed away because of COVID-19, that I have. He always had a fun fact about the animals to share.
