How to plant a tree in Kenya? Let me show you! I have many trees in my garden at home. I don't think I planted one that felt so good as the one I planted in Kenya. It's a strange experience.

What a women-only safari really means, and what it doesn't A women-only safari is not about exclusion. It's about experience. A unique experience that is designed for comfort, safety, and shared values. I understand these values, as for the past 16 years, I have managed a women-only group of metaplastic breast cancer patients. This is a rare cancer, and through our group, we ladies have bonded and share a set of common experiences and values.

Because we will have a honey tasking night on our Safari. Organised with the CWC where they have added Beehives in the outskirts of the camp to create a unique honey experience!

My Reiki story. Reiki is a form of healing that can unblock the chi and also open your chakras. I have probably lost 80% of my audience talking about Chi, Chakras and I haven’t even started on Meridians or intuition.

I love my husband. I loved my dad, and I love my male family and friends. But it does not mean that I want to travel with them! Especially not on a philanthropic safari!

A philanthropic safari in Kenya is not about ticking off wildlife sightings or chasing luxury for its own sake. It is about travel that gives back to people, to communities, and to the places that make the journey possible.
