The rain is scarce, the grey clouds sometimes show up but they quickly go away and the winds are getting stronger. It is not the weather that tells me the high season is here already, but the people who start to come to Santa Teresa, from all around the world.<br \/>\nThis time I received good friends Kush and Vanessa! Both are passionate fans of photography.<\/p>\n<p> &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Kush<\/h2>\n<p>Kush is from Botswana, a landlocked country in the south part of Africa. The fact he comes from a country that does not have access to the sea didn&#8217;t stop him from having a good time here in Santa Teresa beach.<br \/>\nHis country is a marvelous one, with the Kalahari desert in the east and the Okavango Delta in the north, Botswana is home to hundreds of exotic animals.<br \/>\nMost of the country is flat with just a few hills and tablelands here and there which allows taking amazing photos of the landscape.<br \/>\nYou know I love to get more info about the countries of the people that visits me and Kush&#8217;s country has a lot of nice pics to watch. Meeting him made me want to go to Botswana in the future. Good people are not a coincidence but they are the result of growing up surrounded by kind-hearted persons. I saw that on Kush.<\/p>\n<p> &nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-988.fg-justified .fg-item { margin-right: 2px; margin-bottom: 2px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-988.fg-justified
