  • Hiking Mount Kilimanjaro officially falls under one of the coolest, successful, physically and mind challenging things I have ever done. That smile there is sheer joy, satisfaction, accomplishment and shock at seeing a "crazy" dream turn into reality..I came, I saw, I conquered Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa, stood at the highest point in Africa standing at 5895M and still managed to do it with a smile :-)...A reminder that dreams do come true and you(I) am/are stronger than I/you think..For the whole story check link on bio :-) and start preparing to hike. #tanzania🇹🇿 #Travel #Africa #exposingbeautifulafrica #wangechigitahitravels #safiriafrica #tembeaafrica

  • Fun exercise for today. The Twelve Tribes of Israel is one of the Rastafarian groupings. It represents the Twelve Tribes of Israel which are named after the Twelve sons of Jacob of the Bible. Yes, they read the Christian Bible and their Motto is "Read a Chapter a Day":-) The first one is silver and represents the first son Reuben thus the month of April, then Simeon, Levi, Judah, Isaachar, Zebulun, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Joseph, Benjamin. Have some fun and check out which tribe you would be aligned to :-) I was nicknamed Benji, after Benjamin the last son who is represented by black which is the last colour on the spectrum.
  • Today focus moves to Shashamane, in Ethiopia...Home of Rastafarians.. 1: Emperor Haile Selasie offered 500acres in Shashamane, as a home to any Rastafarian worldwide to return home and Live. 2: Just because someone has dreads, and wears Rasta colours does not make them Rastafarian. Only if they follow the tenets of Rastafarianism can they claim to be Rasta. &: There are different Rastafarian grouping e.g. -Bobo Ashanti, Nyabinghi, Twelve Tribes of Israel among others .
