This month's issue is a BUMPER edition! Sabona have gone all out to bring you the delights of the festive season! Learn how to survive Christmas without losing your sanity, delight in delicious desserts, and get to know some of the better-known Aussie traditions! For the more substantial appetite, meet amazing business woman Jenni Spence, admire Dan's Legacy, an inspiring and thought provoking story especially chosen for this season. Get in touch with your inner African by reading our regular "Under African Skies". For the business focused, we have our usual array of brilliant business advice. For those of you passionate about pets, be enthralled by unusual furry and feathery friends and learn what to do about the itchy and scratchy season before it drives you and your pet to distraction.

THIS ISSUE IS JAM-PACKED FULL OF COMPETITIONS!

And here's a CHALLENGE for the photographers amongst you, why not send us your amazing African animal pics for your chance to be recognised as an official SABONA cover photographer?

It's that time of year again when you finally get to think about putting your feet up. May this season bring you blessings and the joys of sharing precious time with friends and family from near and far! Spare a thought and a prayer for those who are spending their first Christmas far from home. And for those of you who’ve been here a long time, take a leaf out of an old friend's book - create a gathering for the "orphans", those of us who aren't able to go back to SA to celebrate the season and have no family around to celebrate here.

Sabona are always looking for interesting stories about Southern Africans all around Australia and People Moving to Australia. If YOU think it's interesting, chances are everyone else will think so too, so please contact editor@sabona.com.au
