Adventure travel in Africa
“Do one thing that scares the total sh*t out of you” It was a beautiful Monday morning on the very first day of 2018. My friends and I decided to start the New Year facing our fears by Ziplining. Everything about this day was terrific except I was not. My head felt like elephants were…
After a few minutes of paddling, our guide yelled ”Right hand steer” we all jumped to the right side.

Olkaria Geothermal Pool also known as Mvuke Spa is located inside Hell’s Gate National Park that’s just an hour and a half away from Nairobi. The pool is owned by KENGEN. It’s the first of its kind in Africa. The first thing you notice once you spot the pool is that the water is bright…
Can you remember what you were doing on 14th November 2017 at around noon? Don’t go back to the calendar and see it was a Tuesday and say “duhh it was a weekday, of course, I was in the office.” Nope. That doesn’t cut it. I mean, what were you doing exactly? Or was it…
