| | | | Join our Elevated Journeys to Moela Safari Botswana, Sept 20-25 2024 — At ELEVATION BARN, bravery, curiosity, altruism, and exploration are at the root of everything we do and in the hearts of our community. The creation of Elevated Journeys was a natural progression for us, quenching a thirst for adventure and allowing us to elevate together in some of the most significant conservation Edens of our planet.
To realize this dream, we have partnered with several of the world’s leading conservationists and their associated, elite outfitters, to sculpt Elevated Journeys: truly unique offerings that inspire our personal journeys, authentically connect us to grass-root, sustainable initiatives for good, and allow quality time to learn and supporting the local guardians that protect them. |
|
| | Elevated Journeys at Moela Safari is emblematic of this vision. We have loved building this experience, working with their dedicated team, and bringing on board the visionary David Dugmore who knows the land like a native lion. David, a Botswana native and owner of Moela, is recognized as one of the world's leading conservation tourism experts. With 32 years in the business, he is a film producer, safari guide, camp lead, and extreme adventurer sought by international documentary teams and impact experts. |

This September, join our first EB Botswana Expedition at Moela - a remote Bush Camp on the banks of the Boteti River, edged alongside the incredible Kalahari Desert and floodplains of the Okavango Delta. A place home to the birthplace of humanity, mankind's oldest traditions, and nature's richest biosphere on Earth. This fully private, inclusive EB expedition is about a high-touch experience with ourselves and hands-on impact work with local communities and wildlife. Walking with the elders of local tribes and learning about tracking and culture following the ancient first language of humanity, experiencing Africa like never before. |
|
| | On your Elevated Journeys at Moela, you will refuel what matters most and celebrate your true super self in this stunning location which is both humbling and transformative. Incredible activities and experiences from Bushman tracking animals on foot to camping out in the Makgadikgadi salt pans, together, we will take these four days to reflect on your EB journey so far, rewiring what needs to be reset and fostering higher-level states of thinking and being deep in nature. The experience is as much about immersion in the Botswana landscape as it is about the retreat process. Navigated through the newly sculpted, lighter-touch, highly impactful ELEVATE Process™, you will feel re-focused, clear, and even more confident and empowered to live the life you need.
Moela’s purpose and mission align with our values and those of our members. The Lands aims to increase engagement between the tourism sector and civil society, allowing people in rural communities to have a stake and ownership in the tourism sector in a more meaningful and sustainable framework. After all, this is their land and their heritage. I hope you will join us on this Elevated Journeys to keep elevating what truly matters in the world today. Simply reply to this email or contact us directly at connect@elevationbarn.com to join while spaces remain available.
