After entering the Cape Point of Cape Town’s Table Mountain national park, follow the first turning to ‘Olifantsbos’ (elephant bush). A ten-minute drive will deliver you to a small carpark and the start of the Shipwreck hiking trail. I know not the name of this plant, tucked into a half-shaded part of a sand-dune, but I loved the texture. So, curled up into an awkward ball on the trail, with the rest of the group by now way ahead, I did what I could. The wrecked and scattered bits of old ships and the variety of sea-birds made for morning magic.

Angus is serious about his craft. A CNN award-winning television producer, he was the first South African broadcast journalist to report from the chaos of Somalia in 1992.
He went on to cover the Rwandan genocide of '94 and South Africa's first democratic elections the same year, for which he was nominated for the national public service radio awards.
It was these episodes in Somalia and Rwanda that took him the roundabout route to the fields of travel and environment, in which he now writes, produces and photographs.
