We are sad to say goodbye but we know for sure that this is just the first visit to a new found home, Africa. Cheers to one of the best traveling partners ever Miss Wendy- thank you for your love and friendship all of the years and to many more in the future. I think the best thing about our journey besides EVERYTHING was meeting our new friends along the way. Thank you Gina & Andrew for the amazing hook up in Dubai... 5stars+++ Thank you Sachen & Farzana for organizing such an amazing trip to Kenya and thank you Teeku for making our safari’s so personal and memorable. Africa has been a life time dream for me and for all that I imagined it to be it was more special than I will ever be able to explain. They say that once you have been to Africa it changes you, it enlightens you and ignites your soul. I speak for both of us when I say 'that it is true' … 100% true.

What we know for sure…

you are always a better person for following your dreams...
