Your books inspired me to travel to Botswana earlier this year. It was every bit as wonderful as your characters imply; I have never met warmer or stronger people anywhere, and the trip has changed me in ways I probably won't completely understand for a while yet. I also spent time in Zimbabwe, South Africa, and Uganda, and I've fallen in love with Africa as a whole, but Botswana was my favorite. Thank you so much for cracking open a window into a place I would almost certainly never know much about if you hadn't written about it... Botswana will have a place in my heart for the rest of my life, and I hope to go back soon.
