Kenya is considered as the best place to discover the fauna and flora of the African continent. The boundless wilderness of this region has long attracted adventure seekers from all over the globe. It’s very hard to find this incredible range of landscapes, and unique variety of animals in the same place.
Kenya offers the visitor a chance to experience a natural world unchanged by the passage of time.
This great range of natural habitats means that there is plenty to explore, and plenty of species to encounter.
This is a land of endless potential for the wildlife enthusiast. From great migratory herds of the open savannah to an incredible abundance of birdlife, from the depths of a tropical rainforest to the depths of the Indian Ocean teeming with fish, this a world of natural wonders.
A safari into the wilds of Kenya is a journey into nature at its purest. Everywhere you look there is a profusion of life…
Nairobi National Park is the oldest of Kenya’s National Parks and Game Reserves. It was gazetted in 1946. Its main entrances are merely a stone’s throw away from the city’s outskirts, making Nairobi the only city in the world that borders a natural game protection area.
The park’s advantage is that visitors do not have to travel far to view game in it’s natural habitat. The animal orphanage and Safari walk at the main gate should not be missed. The orphanage is home to injured and orphaned animals. Here they are nursed back to health before being released to the wild. The park is also ideal for ornithological safaris
During my trip to Kenya I could not out of Nairobi, so I tried to manage the visit the National Park, and the Orphanage at Nairobi.
I’ve been really surprised when I read all the security policies at the entrance. I did not realize that I’m going to a place where I need to be in a box and the animals are going to be free. It was a great experience

Ethiopia my second Home
Ethiopia has been my first interaction with the eastern African countries, being a trainer, every time I need to move from one country to another one, adapt myself as soon as possible.
The first sensation I’ve got at Addis is the altitude of the city, some breathing difficulties on the first days made me realize how the city has been built , In fact, the majority of the places I visited around Addis were green and the scenery is some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. There is also so much history and culture to be discovered.
But the most exciting moment I had were when I met a small family with a lot of children. The Ethiopians are warm, friendly and inviting people who are always excited to meet a foreigner and despite their obvious struggles, always went the extra mile to accommodate me.
I was amazed, how good English they can speak, we start talking about China, Algeria, football, music, we spent a very good time enjoying a coffee ceremony prepared by one of them.
Being African, I always wanted to make my hair as a real one, and they gave me the chance to enjoy this moment with them.
I’ve been twice to Ethiopia, and this family became somehow a part of mine, every time I reach Addis my first call is for them just to arrange a time to meet!!
