Planning Your Trip To Kilimanjaro Preparing and planning for your trip to Kilimanjaro in Tanzania can be a daunting experience, but not so if you plan well and engage with experience and expertise.

Whatever I am about to say might shock you! Before I begin, I would like to start by saying that I have been to some of the most well-managed orphanages and children’s homes in the world as part of our travels. Among the orphanages that I really loved visiting around the world is Happy House […]
The great wildebeest migration has been listed as a ‘wonder of the world’ for all the obvious reasons. It involves large herds of wildebeests, antelope, and zebras moving from Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park to Kenya’s Maasai Mara National Park as they escape harsh weather conditions and look for greener fields.

Kenya is proud to be the only country with a National Park within the city! Based on this perfect location, it attracts both domestic and foreign tourists.

Kenya has managed to win a HUGE soft spot in my heart! I cannot believe that it took me years of traveling before I landed in this beautiful country. I remember a Facebook friend saying “you have left the best until last” and maybe she was right? Now that I am here, I have realized that there […]
Children ran on the streets rolling tires with sticks, as our tuk-tuk bumped through the dusty dry laneways. Today is our last day in Diani Beach Kenya, and I promised many of you, that we would distribute food to needy families here, and some of you kindly gave towards this. A lot of you have […]

Without its beautiful sandy beaches, Mombasa would probably lose its meaning. This is a coastal city in Kenya that is well known for its Swahili culture and eye-catching coastlines.
