I have done a Samburu post in the past which is why i have taken longer than usual contemplating on whether to do this or not. This was my fourth time in Samburu and i bet i’ll visit again. I usually do it for the Elephants. The thrill of spotting an animal in its natural habitat, especially one of the “Big Five” is quite unrivalled and honestly, never gets old for me no matter how many times I have been on safari before and more also when it narrows to my long nosed friends.
Samburu offers an authentic wilderness experience on the remote Kenyan Northern Frontier. It just has it all, from scenery to wildlife. It’s wild and epitomizes the hilly landscape so typical of the Frontier. The purity and vastness of this African landscape combined with the untouched local culture make a safari to Samburu memorable. The traditions and semi- nomadic heritage of the local Samburu people are an integral part of the experience.
You are never too old to read a good story or make one of your own and as far as south coast is concerned, everyone has their favorite. The moment you realize that the Kenyan coast has its own distinct personality. The moment you end up telling your friends about endlessly when you get home. It could be the long enviable beaches to walk on,overwhelming sight of swimming dolphins, the sight of the blood red sun as it dips beneath the sea, the smell of freshly cooked Biriani, a sail to one of the magnificent islands, the Swahili rich cultural heritage, dinner on the beach with a loved one, or the feeling of warm sand between your toes as you stand on one of south coast’s truly endless beaches. The list is endless. 
Bless you Carol for discovering this place for us. Last weekend was nothing short of a blast, the kind that adds life to your days. It’s been a while since i last had so much fun having spent the last month buried in books but well, it’s over. Good company, great environment and lots of laughter are few of the ingredients that made up my weekend but let me first introduce you to what was our home.
Is it too hot or am i the only one feeling the heat? Hello dear readers,i trust you all having a fantastic week. It’s a little crazy for me here,too much to do and having hold of my favorite series isn’t making things any better. I know for sure if i don’t get this post done now, am certainly almost never doing it. 
I am unashamedly addicted to Laikipia believe me when i say i never saw myself ever foregoing a trip to this magical region that i have such a long standing love affair with for any other place in Kenya but well, never say never, Olarro happened and am glad because one a veer on my travel radar was kind of exciting and two i get to bring my readers something new and different.
The very first time i came across Samatian Island was on twitter and as i re tweeted the post i couldn’t help but admire her beauty. At no particular time did i imagine it was in Kenya (clearly i under estimated my country’s beauty). Of course the adventurer in me wanted to visit the island,not as soon as it happened though.
