Mwea National Reserve
Happy new year! Or is it too late? It’s been a long minute i trust the months have treated you all well, the new year too. Somewhere in the last quarter of 2020 i promised a post, one of those where i drift from my usual and do a post on a Reserve or park. I was so torn between two reserves and when my first option became too tricky to get to given my schedule then i settled for Mwea National Reserve.

The phone beeps, i pick it. It’s a whatsapp text from my dearest friend, my partner in destination hunting. The message is a link and from the featured photo i recognize the property. ” Its in Laikipia”, I respond but before I can get the rest of the information out I’m interrupted.
“I am ready whenever you are?” she says with excitement by the emojis and without waiting for my response goes on to express how gorgeous the place is before dropping the rates. I completely agree with her. It screems peace and tranquility, a rarity . I check my watch and think to myself, if we can pack our bags now we could be there by sunset; but thats the excited me, my itchy travel feet have been teased. The place is so affordable and conveniently accessible . “This month is fine by me as long as it’s not within the next two weekends” I reply hoping that she’s equally free then and besides, the notice feels right. She’s game, it’s a trip!

So am seated here staring at a blank page trying to tell a story but am not digging the vibe, am in denial. It can’t be over😒 I am physically in the office but my mind and soul are still stuck in Lamu. I had a blast, it was so beautiful, felt like the first time yet i had been. I can’t put a finger on what particularly made it so. What really was different this time? But wait, there are a number of amazing photos on my camera. That sounds like a good start, a story on it’s own we can tell through them; but before we get started here is a link to my first experience.
