History
In 2009 Safari the Globe was informally founded by Justin Dodge
when the website was launched. It began as a medium to display his travel pictures
and stories with family and friends, but quickly turned into a more informational
website.
Safari the Globe soon transformed into a site focused on Justin's personal travel
interests, with a bias towards local cultures, history, and food.
Today, Safari the Globe continues to evolve as our focus remains on understanding
modern-day cultures and the landscapes and events that created these modern societies.
From information about the native land, weather, and wildlife, to modern technology,
politics, and history, it is our hope that each of our visitors leaves with more
knowledge about their destination, but more importantly a better understanding of
why their destination is what it is today.
Due to our emphasis on cultural understanding, we don't focus our content to
only the business traveler, vacationer, or ex-patriot working or studying aborad.
Instead, we focus on providing every traveler acurate and up to date information
about their destination's people. Whether you're abroad to conduct business,
study abroad, or just experience a new place, we hope Safari the Globe helps you
make the most of your time while you're away.
