The Okavango Delta is one of those places that truly lives up to the hype… and then somehow exceeds it. 🦒🇧🇼

A lush, water-filled oasis in the middle of the Kalahari, where the seasons quite literally shape the entire experience.
Floodwaters arrive months after the rains fall in Angola, transforming the landscape into a maze of channels, islands, and wildlife-rich plains.
We stayed at @aksanctuary Sanctuary Chief’s Camp on Chief’s Island — known as the predator capital of Botswana. Because it’s one of the only areas of permanent dry land, animals naturally gather here… which means some of the most incredible game viewing you can experience.
What makes this place so special is the contrast. Early mornings tracking predators on game drives, and afternoons drifting through quiet waterways in a mokoro, surrounded by birds, reeds, and the kind of stillness you rarely find anymore.
And the timing completely changes the experience.
✨ Dry season (May–October): peak flood levels + unbelievable wildlife concentrations
🌿 Green season (November–April): lush landscapes, baby animals, fewer crowds
No matter when you go, it’s one of the most unique safari destinations in the world, and one that feels wild, untouched, and unforgettable.

i love the colors!!! and the design is different
Thanks Izy! You should try it 🙂
My husband was working on a project in Aruba for over a year. Having lots of time to relax, I decided to experience different spas while in the Island and I have to say that Aqua Nails and Spa is by far the best spa in Aruba.
I love this place. Not only is the staff personable, friendly, knowledgeable, and great at what they do, they are also incredibly accommodating. They made sure I enjoyed my spa experience every time.
Thanks for sharing Liliy!
