Tanzania - a Journey Home

My boarding school friend, from the 1950's, and I decided to make a sentimental journey back to
revisit the country where we were raised and schooled. We had UB on Safari arrange our trip
and they did a marvellous job seeming to know exactly the kind of trip we were looking for.

There is a special feeling revisiting a place you have grown up in and this set really has that wonderful feeling of
seeing an old friend. V

A personal journey with a quiet but evident subtext. Beautiful to see and read. V

What a wonderful journey back it must have been for you to revisit the places you lived in your youth so far from your present home. And so nice for you to share this experience with us. I can sympathize as I spent all my teenage years in Indonesia and Singapore and when I visited again it was a myriad of strong feelings that went through me, most of which are hard to express in words.

Thus far, a fascinating world in sepia tones. Look forward to more of your journey back in (your) time.
