IG: In 2016 it became reality. I went on Safari to Kenya with Gamewatchers Safaris, staying in their own small Porini Camps in private conservancies, land leased for eco-tourism from the local Maasai people. I saw f

✨ When it’s feeding time, nothing else matters 🔊

The River Pride—renowned hippo hunters—were once again deep into a hard-won feast. The only thing thicker in the air than the smell (literally had me dry heaving), was the tension!

They’d been feeding for a couple of days, yet the hierarchy was crystal clear. A couple of sharp warnings from a lioness was all it took to remind this big male who was NOT in charge of her space.

This lioness was absolutely not buying what this big boy was selling.

🇰🇪Learn these phrases and you’ll be speaking Swahili like a… - well, a mzungu who saved an Instagram post.

But wait… what’s a mzungu, I hear you say?

Going on an African safari but you’re not from Africa?

If this describes you (and it does describe me)…

You’re a mzungu. I’m a mzungu — together, we’re wazungu.

You’re welcome. “Karibu”
