Africa
This continent is huge. I’ve only covered a fraction of the interior central eastern area Kenya, and Tanzania. It’s a beautiful country that feels otherworldly.

It speaks for itself.
Small Planes for Big Destinations
Most of the time, small planes aren't really that much more than the commercial airliners. Also, if you're in a county like Kenya or a continent like Africa- trying to travel with just the roads can be challenging, dangerous, and sometimes just a waste of time. You...
The Baobab Tree Forest in Northern Madagascar
The Baobab tree is amazing, it's a succulent.. yeah. Some of them are thousands of years old. One of them (which I didn't see, but was in Madagascar) was so large they carved a small bar into it. The Baobab is also called “reniala” (“mother of the forest”) in...
Ancient Cave Exploration with Giant Lemur Fossils in Northern Madagascar
About 30 minutes of walking into the scorching hot forest, we arrive at a hole in the ground. The temperature is what the locals would call "Mafana Be" which is Malagasy for REALLY HOT. It doesn't look like much, and there's a 40 foot ladder peeking out of the top,...
Incredible Giant Forest Crab on Madagascar

The capital city of Madagascar: Antananarivo.

Leopards are extremely difficult to spot. Here's one hanging out, on a branch. There's the kill. They store it in the tree, to avoid theft by Hyena. The Leopard will eat a few times, then leave the scraps for the condors. They just like to be left...
Africa: The Maasai “Jumping” Dance
In Eastern Africa's southern Kenya region, you find the the Maasai people. They are among 43 native tribes in the nation. They're the last and only remaining tribe that has not adopted any modern methods of living. It's all 100% unchanged for centuries. It's not...
Spotted Hyena
We came across a spotted hyena and this Kori Bustard bird nest. Largest bird in Africa with flight capability. The largest bird is the Ostrich, technically. This place is truly beautiful, with a type of light that you can't really describe or capture in photos. It's...
