Confession: Wildlife isn’t my cup of coffee. Does this mean I have a problem? Maybe you’re like me saying, naah you’re fine or Me too. Well, Hold up. I think we have a problem. We take things for granted. Am I unaware of what I have in my backyard? We went to the mara with American friends and trust me, we’d stop for 20 mins or so just for them to see Zebras, which left me asking myself, Do we take lots of […]
The plan was simple, in click click and I’m out. Previous night, Alarm clock: Check Gear: Check, Clothes: Whatever the hand picks in the morning we good to go. Alarm goes off. Waking up mother nature decides to grace us with some rain. Not good. The reason I was waking up early is, there’s this thing with tourist locations having many people and that’s is a photo no no for me. Plans ruined but I had to go with it. […]
Are we blind to life’s moment happening around us? Everyone is experiencing moments colored by their judgments, expectations and desires. Get out, walk. You must not always have a destination. Makes things interesting. There’s always something happening in every direction. Is Chaos constant in every city? Are we all the same monkeys in different concrete jungles? Being an introvert and a shy person and doesn’t make street photography my cup of coffee. But i do enjoy getting out of the comfort […]
Maybe It’s just me. Someone may have jinxed me. Being out there alone is not as glamorous as people think it is. I know from all the posts it looks amazing. Well, Yes it is. It is so good I wish I could have started when I was little. Sell a kidney or two, not mine of course and travel the world. That’s all we dream of right? But let’s skip that. I’ve been getting the, “You are living the […]
If your expecting to see pictures of crocodiles or read about crocodiles, congratulations you played yourself. Wait don’t go lemme explain myself. See, The City of Faiyum worshiped a tamed sacred crocodile, named Petsuchos, that was adorned with gold and gem pendants. The greeks thus ended up calling Faiyum crocodilopolis. Interesting right? Class dismissed. Now let’s fast forward to the fun part. Sand surfing. Rolling down sand dunes? Ever seen a squirrel on steroids? Me neither. Let’s just say I was […]
So how did I end up on a horse in Giza? Remember me saying about crossing the streets of Egypt is like playing human Tetris? If yes, high five yourself. If No, buckle up? Lemme walk you through it. (See what I did there?) We had a routine going on where @petersize10 and I would wake up every morning at around 4:30 AM to go exploring the streets of Egypt. As much as I love my sleep, the shutter bug […]
Lemme start by confessing. We did not shower for two days. Look at you judging me? What’s the longest you’ve ever gone without showering? Pooping in the desert? See, such are the joys of going for camping. It’s you and nature. Growing up I used to envy Bear Grylls, well I still do. I’d probably sell a kidney (not mine) to join his adventures. Now let me tell you about The White Desert. Know that feeling when you know there […]
With Tales of tourists killed in The Famous deserts, you’d wipe it off your bucket list right? Guess again. I mean who knows when I’ll be back? Plus Mahmoud our guide, mentioned that he knows the desert like the palms of his hand. “C’mon it’s totally safe. Look at the bright side, if you died, at least we die together.” He bursts out in laughter. “Just kidding. Think about it. If you do not want to go it’s okay.” 10 […]
I know I know. Sorry for keeping y’all waiting. In my defense, 1. This isn’t my cup of coffee (but I’m starting to like it) 2. Been hella caught up. But hey, were here again. If you’ve been keeping up with me on Instagram, I’ve been sharing few snippets of my awe moments in Egypt and today I come bearing gifts. So lemme start by saying, we almost missed this epic moment. How you ask? So here we are just checked […]
*Cut to scenes of us roaming the streets of Cairo* It’s probably 5PM, so here we are with @petersize10 on our quest to explore every corner of Cairo, enjoying every moment as we watch the sunset slowly fall on the old textured buildings. It’s magical, more than beautiful. Busy playing playing Human Tetris with cars on the streets (story for another day) *Fast forward* Straight ahead at some park, there’s a champ who’s got people’s attention. He is not your average rider, […]
