About This Presentation This presentation documents exceptional responsible travel practices around the world and spotlights Mossel Bay and the Western Cape of South Africa with a call to social web action! We encourage locals and visitors to collaborate and mix it up (in a good way). Included are screenshots, original artwork and suggestions for participation. Comments are welcome and so are embeds, likes and shares. - Ron Mader (Las Vegas, July 2015)
