About
Hello! I’m Elfi, originally from Austria, but my heart has long belonged to the vast and breathtaking landscapes of Southern Africa. The travel bug bit me early, sparking a lifelong journey of exploration and adventure.
In 1991, I arrived in South Africa for what was meant to be a four-month working holiday—but fate had other plans. Captivated by the beauty of this land and the warmth of its people, I simply couldn’t leave. My love for travel transformed into a lifelong passion and career as a tourist guide, allowing me the privilege of introducing travelers from around the world to the magic of Southern Africa.
Now, after decades of unforgettable experiences, I’m still discovering the wonders of this extraordinary continent. Freedom Unlimited is more than just a travel blog—it’s a celebration of the adventures, landscapes, and incredible stories that make Southern Africa so special. Here, I’ll share not just places, but moments that define the essence of travel: the thrill of discovery, the joy of connection, and the unforgettable experiences that shape a lifetime of exploration.
Join me as we journey beyond the guidebooks and into the heart of adventure. This is Freedom Unlimited—where the road never ends, and the experiences are limitless.
