Today's travel photo is of rays of morning sunlight shining down on a grassy plain in the Manyara region of the Rift Valley in Tanzania. I took this photo while on my way to visit a local Masai Village. These grasslands are used by the Masai to graze their cattle, but they are also frequented [...]
Today's travel photo is of a Masai man demonstrating how to start a fire using donkey dung in their village near Lake Manyara, Tanzania. Visiting this Masai village was a great experience for me, as the people showed us around their village and gave us a look into the lives and culture of the Masai [...]
Today's travel photo is of a group of elephants in Lake Manyara National Park, Tanzania. I was so happy when we spotted this group of elephants during our safari in the park, as before this I had only seen one other elephant and that was at a distance.
