Nicki Geigert is a photographer and a travel writer. She has photographed on all seven continents. Her work has been displayed in gallery shows, Fodor’s Travel Guides, and in coffee table books. Her extensive experience of photographing in other countries has shown her that beauty is everywhere, but many countries are not protecting their native environment, nor the animals that live there-in. Madagascar is one of those places that has a scorch and burn policy, and habitats are being destroyed daily. It is her belief that we are to be stewards of the earth and all that is in it. Counter to that, she has been witness to the destruction and exploitation of cultures and wildlife throughout Africa, Asia, and South America.
Writing stories about the people, their culture, the local environment, the animals in that area, and what is unique and special about each place on the planet is Nicki’s way of sharing her passion and compassions with her reading audience; to provide awareness, and invite them to come along with her to these far-away places and spaces.

Book Review
Nicki Geigert pens an adventure-filled book titled “Family Trip to Magical Madagascar and Beyond”
“A captivating story of family travel with accompanying photos depicting the natural fascinating beauty of Madagascar.”
"Family Trip to Magical Madagascar and Beyond is about a family that went to Madagascar and then on to Zimbabwe. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, and hosts a huge array of lemurs including the Aye-Aye, fossas (endemic to Madagascar and the largest carnivore on the island), many species of plants, chameleons, and insects. The experience of traveling together with family to see new places and new things is such a pleasure. Travel together can add lifelong memories and bonding experiences for each individual family member.
“This book is for anyone who is interested in travel to exciting new places and desires to experience awesome adventures, unique, indigenous animals, birds, insects, reptiles, (all non-poisonous), plants, trees, and also experience cultural diversity when meeting the Malagasy people. Join our family as we participate in this adventure of a lifetime”, explains the author.
“Family Trip to Magical Madagascar and Beyond” was featured and presented at the 2020 BookExpo, New Title division.
