I can’t believe it’s been just over 3 years since our trip to Africa. In a lot of ways it still feels very recent, yet a lot’s happened since then. I realized recently that there are photos sitting unshared from Tanzania which is a waste. So here we are 🙂 Dar es Salaam often …

serengeti national park
Serengeti has to be one of the most famous (if not the the most famous) wildlife preserves in the world. And with good reason — what you can see within just a couple of days is hard to believe and be matched. From the wildebeest migration with its staggering 1.5 million animals to the …
red and green tanzania
It’s hard to believe a year has gone by since my trip to Tanzania & Kenya. I started going through some photos recently and realized how much more I wanted to share, but never got around to. So I’ll try to post a few more stories in the weeks ahead. One thing that came …
2014 in review
I’ve never really been the “look back and reflect on the past 12 months” kind of guy, but either way you look at it 2014 was an incredible year!
around zanzibar, from east to north
After a long and eventful first day around Stone Town and Zanzibar we decided to head on to the north side of the island, with a few stopovers of course. Luckily we had rented a great little 4×4 to help us get to some of those harder to reach locations. Palm trees …

One of the highlights of my trip was definitely the island of Zanzibar. There will be more posts on its incredible beaches and scenery in the coming weeks (takes me quite a bit of time to properly display the photos and tell the story, apologies), but part of its charm is the popular Stone …
a day in tarangire national park
Tarangire is not the biggest of national parks, but it’s one of the most visited destinations in Tanzania due to its rich diversity of wildlife in a relatively small area. In just a single day you can see pretty much anything from insects and birds all the way up to elephants, giraffes, and lions …
mind over matter or climbing kilimanjaro (5,895m)
I’ve been meaning to climb Kili for some time now. I’d read it was the most accessible out of the Seven Summits (highest on each continent) and it seemed like a good starting point to going well over 5,000m and tackling some of the other Seven down the line 😉 For a couple of …
africa, where the colors don’t fade
You know how they say you leave your heart in Africa? How this wildly contrasting place gets to you and you keep revisiting your steps, toying with the idea of going back? How you find yourself looking around your home afterwards and wondering how people take so many things for granted, forgetting to enjoy …
