Lesotho heartbeat of Southern Africa. Explore and travel Lesotho 1. Photographing Lesotho
This Film on Lesotho introduces the viewer to the Mountain kingdom of Lesotho. I explored and travelled the southern part of Lesotho to capture with photos and do some fly fishing to test the waters of Lesotho. Lesotho must be the heartbeat of Southern Africa. This film is about my exploration of the southern side of Lesotho with cameras. It introduces the viewer to the uniqueness of Lesotho's people, history, culture and landscapes despite being landlocked by South Africa.

Lesotho Daily Life
Lesotho (le-soo-too), officially known as the Kingdom of Lesotho is a mountainous, landlocked country surrounded by the Republic of South Africa. The first settlers were Bantu speaking people who called themselves the Basotho.
Beautiful, culturally rich, safe, and easily accessible from Johannesburg, Lesotho is a vastly underrated tourist destination. In comparison to South Africa, Lesotho's Basotho people are unique in culture, along with the highland terrain, which is a topographical extreme. The country's hospitable mountain lodges and trading posts will give travelers a refreshing perspective of Southern Africa.
Lesotho is essentially an alpine country, where villagers on horseback in multi-coloured balaclavas and blankets tread precipitous terrain. The hiking and trekking is often made on a famed Basotho pony, in order to enjoy the world class infrastructure of its three stunning national parks.
The 1000m-high lowlands offer craft shopping and sights, but don't miss a trip to the southern, central or northeastern highlands, where streams traverse ancient ground where dinosaurs flourished.
From Lesotho, we journey to a nearby fishing village just beyond the kingdom's peripheries, near Johannesburg.

In this episode I take you to the the Sky Kingdom of Lesotho, the highest country in Africa. This country has the highest low point on earth.
The entire country is 1000 meters above sea level. It's located about 7 hours drive south of Johannesburg and 5 hours west of Durban. For the next 72 hours I am going to be showing you what to see and do in Lesotho!
This is Semonkong the horse capital of Lesotho. It's located in the central part of the country. Right now we are going to walk around the market and buy a typical beanie follow me. Follow me lets go shopping!
After a bit of a negotiating I got three for 100 Rand. The beanies are made out of wool and it's the most traditional thing you can buy.
Welcome to Semonkong Lodge! If you're looking to explore central Lesotho this is the place to stay. They have a restaurant, 25 rooms and they are very close to Maletsunyane Fall's the highest single drop waterfall in the southern hemisphere. You can go pony trekking and explore Semonkong.
Next up we head to Maliba Lodge on the northern side of Lesotho. They have 6 chalets and 4 river chalets. A few different activities you can do in the area are horseback riding, village tour and a massage. They have heated floors, beds and wife.
We head out on horseback for a two hour trek in the mountains of Tsehlanyane National Park. After an incredible trek we head to the near by village of Hamadi to experience local life. At the local bar I tried some Lesotho beer which was bitter but traditional :)

Lesotho Africa Sangoma Initiation Rituals Pt 2 - Find what is hidden
An initiation ritual when my friend, a Sangoma from Lesotho, completed his training (his name is Mpiti Thamae). This video was taken by him and he gave me permission to edit and upload.
In this ritual, Thamae is asked to find something that is hidden, in this case a bull. With the help of his ancestors, he was able to pinpoint exactly where the bull was hidden, who was keeping the bull, and even which direction in which the bull was facing!
To contact Sangoma Mpiti Thamae, go to his FB page:

Lesotho is Crazy Beautiful
I'm on Instagram at
Lesotho is crazy spectacular. It's just one of those countries that suits me. It's full of incredible mountains, and lots of rugged landscape. There's this wild freedom to the country that just grabbed me right away.
But, Lesotho is also a challenge; especially as a photographer. There are so many amazing things to see and photograph in the country, but it's a bit of a challenge finding ways to properly photograph them. There's very little tourism infrastructure, and even the roads don't really have places that you can safely pull over to make photos.
Still, there is this energy to Lesotho that I really love. It has me back to feeling really good about travel. It has my spirits back up, and has me excited to explore. Lesotho even has me excited for a bit of mis-adventure, and I got some. On my second day driving around, I smashed into a rock and bent the rim of my tire. Luckily, I got some help and eventually continued on my way.
I ended the day at a place in Lesotho called Semonkong. I came here to photograph a waterfall called Maletsunyane. It's the number one reason I came to the country, and though it would be even more spectacular if the water levels were higher, it's still impressive.

Lesotho to South Africa Border Crossing Trouble| South Africa Day 10
9/24/18 I was so relieved to make our way out of Lesotho and back into South Africa - even though we were almost fined at the border! We drove through the Golden Gate Highlands National Park and scouted for vultures. While we spent the first half of our trip staying in airbnbs, this was the first of several hotel stays. We stayed at the Protea Hotel by Marriott Hilton. We went down the street to have dinner at Artisan Pizzeria.
