9 - Clare Doolan - What makes Botswana unique

Send us a text

Clare Doolan is the Safari Destinations Sales and Product Manager which allows her to travel around the world educating travel agents and tour operators about Botswana and its regions. Clare joins me in this episode (recorded in September 2020 but only released now) to discuss what she loves about living in Botswana. How her time out of Botswana due to Covid has impacted her view of the country and  what she enjoys most about being able to call it home. Clare is a true explorer and enjoys the back roads as much as the luxury lodges and we chat about how Botswana gives her the freedom to be a little bit naughty and a true sense of freedom to explore.
Despite the conversation around Covid-19 being a few months old it is still relevant as we compare how she experienced lockdown in Botswana to summer 2020 in Europe and discuss why a safari is the ultimate socially distanced holiday.
I am very pleased to jump start the 2021 episodes of the podcast with this interview which covers a lot of our previous conversations including Chobe National Park, photography, cultural experiences and sleeping under the stars on the Makgadikgadi Pans.

Clare's photograph of the leopard in the tree can be found at www.getaway.co.za which was taken at Ker and Downey's Kanana camp.
