Lake Manyara National Park - SAFARI TANZANIA 2016
Lake Manyara National Park is a Tanzanian national park located both in Arusha Region and Manyara Region. The majority of the land area of the park is a narrow strip running between the Gregory Rift wall to the west and Lake Manyara, an alkaline or soda-lake, to the east. The park consists of 330 km2 (130 sq mi) of arid land, forest, and a soda-lake which covers as much as 200 km2 (77 sq mi) of land during the wet season but is nearly nonexistent during the dry season. Lake Manyara National Park is known for the flamingos that inhabit the lake. More than 400 species of birds inhabit the park and many remain throughout the year. Leopards, Masai lions, cheetahs, elephants, blue monkeys, dik-dik, gazelles, hippopotami, Masai giraffe, impala, zebras and many more wild animals inhabit this park and many can be seen throughout the year.

Tanzania Expedition 2003
Dublin to London, London to Dubai, Dubai to Nairobi, Nairobi to Tanzania...... It took forever to get us and our gear here, but we made it!
After arriving in Dar es Salaam, we made the epic bus journey to Moshi, the most fun town in Tanzania! Standing at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, it turned out to be our home from home! Staying at the wonderful Kindoroko Hotel, where the steaks were delicious and the alcohol flowed. Hakuna Matata shots, i'll miss them the most!!!
Just outside Moshi was our first stop... the Mweka Primary School! Greeted by hundreds of smiling, laughing faces! We never felt so welcome! We were delighted to be able to help the local craftsmen plaster the school walls and paint the classrooms, teaching english to the kids when we could. Teaching us Swahili didn't fair as well to our untrained tongues, although we managed a few words!! We soon found out with the young guys that football was the universal language of Africa :D
Longido was our next stop, a small town north of Arusha, 2 hours away from Moshi on the Kenya-Tanzania border. This was our first glimpse of Maasai culture. What an extraordinary group of people they are! As they guided us up Mount Longido, a teaser for Mount Kilimanjaro, they never ceased to amaze us with their knowledge of plant and animal life. This leaf.... soothes burns, these flowers.... cures migraine, this twig..... a menthol toothbrush.... the list was endless! Bear Grylls had nothing on them! Their way of life was a shock to all of us, mud huts, no electrcity, running water if they were lucky. And calm as the warriors looked, as they patrolled the edges of their camp for lions, with spears in hand ready to pounce at a moments notice, they always made you feel very safe.
No sooner had we become accustomed to the Maasai way of life, we embarked on the most incredible Safari trip, to the Ngorongoro Crater. This fertile plateau seemed to stretch forever into the distance, and was flourishing with all kinds of animals, big and small. From the galloping herds of zebra, gazelle, and wildebeest, to the majestic walk of the elephants and giraffes, the crater was also home to the big five of rhinoceros, lion, leopard, elephant, and buffalo. And apart from the elusive leopard we got intimate views of all the wildlife!
And then the day arrived! Our first steps on the road to climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest free standing mountain in the world!! At first it was an easy hike, and everyone was full of energy, enjoying the company and unusual surroundings. And before we knew it, a few days into our climb, we were above the first layer of clouds! What a feeling to be looking down on what we'd only ever seen from a plane!!! It seemed as if you could just step out onto them and chase the sun as it set over the horizon. Another day of trekking, stories were flowing, jokes were told, and everyone was reminiscing shared childhood memories. It really brought our group closer together and was welcomed..... with what still lay ahead! More trekking, more climbing, aches and pains, wind burns and numbness, it all became common place until we reached Kibo Huts, the last stop before summit day. It was a hard climb, but the hardest was yet to come, and we knew it. After heading to our tents early, we awoke at midnight to the frigid temperature, but with the determination to reach Uhuru Peak by sunrise. We set off, not entirely sure of what to expect. This was definitely harder than the last four days combined, the temperature fell the more we ascended, and by Gilman's Point at 5681m it was -20'C. Suddenly two pairs of gloves and three pairs of socks didn't seem so silly anymore! The summit felt so close! Slowly and steadily we continued on, crunching the ice and snow under our boots, willing our muscles to go just that little bit further. The wind was against us, and sent constant shivers through our worn out bodies. And then, like a light at the end of a tunnel, the sign at the summit slowly came into view through the clearing snowfall. We had made it! The overall sense of relief was indescribable, for that moment we felt like we were on top of the world! And as we got closer and closer, the sun began to rise, silhouetting the ever welcoming sign of Uhuru Peak at 5,895m Emotions ran high, the adrenaline surging through every part of you, the feeling of success was overwhelming! Yeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaa!
So we travelled to Tanzania as a group of individuals, with our own experiences and memories, to leave with a common appreciation for the wonders of Africa and all it has to offer! Those new found memories will stay with us forever, and the people will always hold a special place in our lives........ by far, one of the greatest decisions ever made :)
The insect of hope
The Vikizijula community in Swaziland talks about bees as the 'insect of hope'. This refers to the way beekeeping and producing honey has transformed their lives. Parents are now able to send their children to proper schools, and some have also been able to construct larger houses. Bees have been driving poverty away from the community. What made beekeeping into such a success? And what problems did the community find on its path?
This film was produced as part of a knowledge building process in which farmers, field workers and project staff drew lessons from their work in supporting family farmers in Swaziland. This process was funded by IFAD and facilitated by ILEIA. To read the accompanying booklet and see the other films, go to
This film was produced by Ray Magagula and directed by Sibonangabo Sikhondze in the framework of the 2014 International Year of Family Farming.

A Week in Africa #6 - Lions & Leopards at Ruaha and Tarangire national park
After spending nearly a month in Malawi, Emily and I headed north for the Tanzania border.
We came across the border near Mbeya, and then headed north for a rendez vous at Arusha. The route was Mbeya to Iringa, then Iringa to Dodoma, then up to Arusha.
On the way we stopped at Ruaha national park where spent the best part of 2 days looking for Leopards (an eventually succeeded).
After Ruaha we continued North to Arusha airport to collect our friends, and then went back into the parks. Due to the extreme cost we opted to not visit the Ngorongoro crater or the Serengeti, and instead went to Tarangire park. A lesser known, cheaper and amazing park!
After Tarangire our friends left, and we continued on to Moshi, where we were going to base ourselves for the Hike up Kilimanjiro
This Nurse Volunteered With PH. You Have To See What Happened Next!
Kay McInnes, RNC volunteered in Kenya with PH in 2013. She went trying to fulfill a dream of serving in medical missions. What she experienced changed her life forever. You won't believe what has happened since that time.
She began the Purple Slip Campaign, first to provided needed items to new mothers and their babies, but then to encompass training area nurses in urgently needed instruction on neonatal resuscitation and to include general medical outreach. Bring your desire and passion to bear on systemic poverty. Change your world!
Video Text:
0:00 A year ago, I talked about the Purple Slip Campaign, and today a year later, I got to meet the baby that started it all -- who inspired me to start it a year ago. I don't know that the mom understands the impact, but you're amazing.
:30 A lot of what we are seeing is that people have been waiting to see medical professionals so long -- it's sad.
#1 volunteer: we've just delivered a little baby boy - he's healthy and cute!
It's 2:21 a.m. and we just got a call that there is a baby on the way so we are going to help deliver the baby trying to stay awake.
1:20: I'm asking you as a student nurse if you are eager to learn and you want to see rural medicine, medications given and care administered, you need to plan to give 10 days of your time and make a difference. Your nursing talents will be strengthened.
2:00 If you are a veteran nurse and are seasoned, we need you to come teach the nurses and midwives. We need to help them learn simpler, more effective ways of doing things. It's an even trade off in learning - you will gain more - you will give time and compassion to these people.
#2 This is a lot of the supplies that were donated from so many great volunteers in the U.S. from hospitals and health care centers.
#3 Become an advocate. They need help - a little bit goes so far. We have to all do our best, appreciate what you have, and start giving back. You'll love what comes to you when you give back!

Exploring the World's Strangest Volcano
Exploring the World's Strangest Volcano: The University of Glasgow Tanzania Expedition
Around 100 years ago Glasgow University geologist John Walter Gregory travelled to and conducted extensive research in East Africa. In 2015, a team from the Earth Sciences department, led by students, returned to Africa to research the world's 'strangest' volcano - Ol Doinyo Lengai - in remote Tanzania.
This short documentary film follows their progress and shows their findings from research into volcanology, plate tectonics, and the impact this has on the local Masai people in the area.
