Fact: My Previous Instagram Account Got Deleted After Posting...Giraffes!

Updated: Aug 10, 2023



Many of you are wondering about the reasons of the deletion of my previous account. Let me explain how and when the whole thing happened:


On the 10th of July, -in the morning- I put a story about me crossing the border between Botswana and Zambia, and then I posted 3 pictures of giraffes where I was explaining facts about this majestic animal.


I would have never imagined this would had lead to the suspension of my account!

Because right after the publication of this new post about wildlife and self-drive safari, I received a message from this platform saying: ‘your account is suspended for 30 days’. Alright. First, it made me laugh, I couldn’t believe it -but! I literally couldn’t access my account anymore -so I claimed it.


I thus decided to stay away from this platform for 2 days. 48 hours later, I tried to access it again. No way. A new message popped up: ‘your account has now been deleted (…)’.


This is unfair and I’m not the only one. I feel so sorry for everyone who has lost their account without notice and for absolutely no reasons.


I was sharing so much of this adventure every single day: overlanding, wildlife, self-drive safari, landscapes, jokes (my speciality ).


Anyway, I’m definitely back with this new one @charline.overlanding and so motivated to keep sharing this expedition the best I can! Africa is so underestimated so let’s discover this fascinating continent together.


Thank you for your support, your kind words, and for believing in my dream, THANK YOU.


So let’s go back on the road again!
