A Fabulous Life on a Frugal Budget

Hallmark Channel’s #SummerNights “Love on Safari” Premiering Saturday, July 28th at 9pm/8c! #LoveonSafari

By Chrysa | 190 Comments

Whether you love to travel yourself or just like to travel vicariously through others, you'll want to tune in to an all-new Hallmark Channel Summer Nights original movie, “Love on Safari” on Saturday, July 28th at 9pm/8c!

I love to travel myself and am actually writing this while on a trip to Winnipeg, Manitoba, in Canada. We're seeing some awesome sites including the Assiniboine Park Zoo, which is home to loads of amazing animals like these yaks. I'm extra happy that I'm on this trip with my husband because traveling with a significant other always makes seeing new and wonderful places a little more special.

Plus traveling as a couple gives us lots of shared experiences that help bring us closer together and create memories we can look back on together for years and years to come. There are so many times we will be watching TV or a movie or listening to a news story and another country or city will be mentioned and one of us will say to the other, “Hey, remember when we were visiting there and ______?” It's so fun to reminisce about those travels and dream up where we want to go next.

If you're single, traveling may also be a way to MEET a significant other, at least it seems like it may be that way in “Love on Safari”! In the movie, Kira Kira inherits a wildlife reserve in South Africa and travels there to meet the no-nonsense head ranger, Tom. When she learns the reserve is in financial jeopardy and she may have to sell it to her uncle's competitor, Tom urges her to save it by taking her on a safari in hopes that she will fall in love with the land, the animals, and hopefully him.

 

 

I'm looking forward to watching “Love on Safari” because we have always wanted to go on safari and this will give me a great look at what that might be like. Hallmark Channel movies are always fun to watch anyway, but this one seems like it might be extra special. – – And I want to see lions!

    I studied about Africa in school and it was so different from anything where I live. Would love to go there someday.

    I love most of the movies on Hallmark. They are so sweet and not raunchy. I would love to go on a safari one day, but it seems as if it would cost a lot of money.

    I like how the Hallmark channel has spread their locations to places where many can only see on tv. The trailer has been terrific and I look forward to not only watching a great Hallmark movie but experiencing the Safari from my livingroom.

    I am a HUGE Lacey Chabert fan and watch Lifetime movies once a week unless it is Christmas time then it is a daily routine for me 😀 I am super excited to see this movie because I am fascinated with wildlife and always dreamed of going on a safari!

    The movie would be a way to enjoy the sights of a safari without the known expense and possible mishaps that can happen during travel. I traveled a lot while working and now that I am retired I prefer to keep my travel more local, ie, in the US.

    I would love to travel to Alaska, while not a safari, I would experience nature in a different way. With different animals and a different climate.

    Hallmark movies have always been my guilty pleasure. Honestly, they can be a bit predictable sometimes, but I’m still a sucker for the cheesy romance without all the extra junk that Hollywood wants to force into movies. The safari theme feels more unique, so I’m excited to see it. We have a membership to our zoo & I’d love to go on a safari one day when my kids are a bit older. And Lacey is the sweetest actress, she makes things feel so real.
