Oasis Overland Adventure - Part 1: Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania

Tim Cahill, author and travel writer, proposed that

"a journey is best measured in friends rather than miles"

which may prove to be true as in the last 24 days Ben & I have traveled over 2,000 miles with a group of 13 other travelers all jumbled together on this fortuitous encounter. So far we haven't been counting the distance, or the days, but instead learning a whole host about our fellow globetrotters.

Kenya - street boys & dodgy driving / An introduction to our next big adventure...!

After an eventful and not particularly enjoyable 48 hour trio of coach journeys, peppered with delays and miscommunication we left Kampala, Uganda and arrived in Kisii, South West Kenya. Kisii is considered a town to the locals, but as we have come to expect in any rural area the town spreads across the valleys, hill tops and the main arteries of the place are dotted with markets all bursting with fresh fruit, vegetables and in this case handmade furniture on sale.

Breathtaking Kenya!
