Ilmuget - rite of passage

Hello, hello......

I hope y'all doing good!

Our timing to travel to Mount Kulal was on point. We arrived there just in time for Illmuget, a cultural ceremony performed by the Samburu Morans. The best part is we partly witnessed the event.

Ps. I will try to explain it as well as I understood it. I might miss out on some details since I do not practice the Samburu culture.

Mount Kulal... a unique ecosystem.

Jambo jambo!!!

I love research, anything to do with wildlife am interested. So here I am with a small grant to do an Avifaunal (bird) survey on Mount Kulal as well as document community utilization of the forests.

 The in depth details of the project might bore you, so I will just share a few pictures, a little bit about the site and the journey. 

Map of Kenya showing where Mount Kulal is located.

Mount Kulal is about 700km from Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, East of Lake Turkana.

 The forest ecosystem is unique considering it is surrounded by arid-land. 

10 things......

Happy New Year to you all....
New beginnings bring with them new opportunities to do and be better.

Prague has lots of museums, cultural and historical attractions, we managed to visit a few such as the Jewish Quarter, Charles Bridge and the Old Town square.

Here are the pictures!

The short visit to Prague a.k.a Praha (1)

 Hola amigos,

After my short summer course, I visited my good friend Scolah in Dresden. While there, we decided to do a road trip to Prague, Czech Republic.

Wine tasting in Palatinate Wine Region, Germany

Hello, hello...

 In September, I attended a short Summer course in Landau, Germany. The programme was tight and most evenings we either relaxed or toured the Landau city and its environs.


 One of the memorable evenings was the wine tasting experience at one of the oldest vineyard. 

 Wine production is quite an exquisite process that starts by understanding the best climatic conditions required for quality grape fruits to the delicate handling and grading of the grapes for quality wine. A few tests were done to check on the sugar levels of the grapes followed by a visit to the factory to appreciate the wine making process. 

Finally a few products both alcoholic and non alcoholic were ours for the tasting. 

Problems - A Guest post by Jimmy Daze

I'm thinking any problem has a solution and a problem source ......explicitly or implicitly.

I think that all problems are induced by us humans yet God provides all solutions but we doubt..... and act like we know better!
