A Wild Walk & Talk with Marlene


A personal journey with me into the wild.

In this world of madness we seldom slow down to listen to the spirit of Nature.

I have spent my life working as an Intuitive Fine art photographer.

What a privilege my life has been. Learning to listen to and communing with Nature.

Nature teaches me its magic – when I tune into myself, I tune into Nature.

I don’t think I would ever have become a photographer if it wasn’t for the Spiritual side.
Living in South Africa we have such a diverse landscape. It’s wild, raw and authentic.

On this walk I share just how I tune in – to the souls of the Aloes, Elephant and Lions.

Love, Marlene

The Sea Listens


The ocean is the beginning of life on Earth, it symbolizes the mysterious the unfathomable, and the chaos.

Spending time with the ocean is more important than ever in our over-stimulated society. It is so important to take time to unplug and return to nature. When I’m swimming in the ocean, my worries disappear, I just float, I tap into the expansiveness of the world, and I am able to just be.

The ocean reminds us that change in life is constant. You never quite know where you stand with the ocean – She is however a good listener.

The ocean heals us in so many ways.
Love, Marlene

Local Hero nomination for Marlene & Buckaroo Team

Marlene and her Buckaroo Team have been nominated for the Daily Dispatch and Johnson & Johnson Local Heroes campaign.

As Marlene says, “But it’s really amazing to see how much of a difference just a few passionate people can make.”

local hero is an ordinary citizen who selflessly does extraordinary work for their community. Daily Dispatch marketing manager Jennilee Peremore-Oliver said the Dispatch and Johnson & Johnson Local Hero Awards judges always looked forward to the unique nominations sent in each year and encouraged readers to nominate the people in their communities going the extra mile to help others.

“We are always looking for those unique stories; people who are helping others in unusual or special ways, because it shows that there is so much one can do to help our neighbours.

“We also look at the level of sacrifice the people have made to help their communities. These are just two of the characteristics that help nominees stand out,” said Peremore-Oliver.

Marlene and her Buckaroo team tirelessly work with the dogs and their owners. Educating owners and ensuring the welfare of dogs that are lucky enough to be part of the Buckaroo Sterilisation Initiative.

The Wisdom of the Forest

One of Marlene’s most recent talks from her INSPIRING VLOGS WITH MARLENE

Join Marlene’s Facebook page for her LIVE talks.


The Wisdom of the Forest

If you hurt Nature you hurt yourself. We are so caught up in our own problems, our desires, our pleasures and our pain that we never look around, never really see, even a tree. Seeing with your eyes, ears and heart. Looking as though you are seeing for the first time.

Have you ever been in communion with a tree? To have no thought, no memory interfering with what you are seeing. Having the attention, so that there is only the tree.

Nature is the basis of our existence. If you cannot love Nature you will find it difficult to love another human being. Walk with me as I share the wisdom of the forest with you.

Love, Marlene
