Yesterday, I had the most unforgettable experience, spending time up close with elephants.
These gentle giants are truly magnificent. Their movements are slow and grounded, and their eyes carry a sense of wisdom that words cannot quite describe. I have always been fascinated by elephants, but I never imagined how touching it would be to stand beside one and gently rest my hand on its skin.
Before yesterday, I only had a vague idea of what elephant skin might feel like. I used to compare it to the back of a human elbow, slightly rough and maybe dry. But once I touched one, I realised their skin is much rougher, thicker, and more textured than I expected. It feels like living armor, shaped by the sun, the earth, and time.
Nature’s design is absolutely incredible. I am so grateful for that moment.
Today, as I head back to Australia, I carry these memories with me. This journey has been filled with wonder, learning, and beauty in the most unexpected ways.
