TravelPulse senior writer David Cogswell is once again in one of his favorite destinations, South Africa. This time, he's at the Indaba Trade Show.

David has written about his adventures on safari, about changing tourism patterns thanks to new South African Airlines routes, on why he loves Durban and about his early impressions of Indaba. 

Now David tells the story of his trip through his lens, 140 characters at a time.
