Climbing Kilimanjaro
In July 2017, I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, often referred to as the roof of Africa. With its summit at 5895 m, this volcano is the highest mountain in Africa and the tallest freestanding mountain in the world. This video shows my climb, from start to finish, through my eyes.
I had planned to climb this mountain in 7 days, but ended up doing it in 6 days because the trek was going quite well and didn't suffer from a lot of altitude sickness. It was a rough week, including having a really hard time to eat, no toilets or showers, cold nights and a lot of hiking. But the scenery was just stunning and I really enjoyed the challenge of hiking up that mountain and meeting people along the way, with seeing the sunrise at Uhuru Peak as a major highlight!
A big thank you to the whole crew of Nyange Adventures, I wouldn't have made it without them! And a special asante sana to my guide Erick!
(I didn't take any videos on the night I climbed to the summit. This because I got strongly recommended not to since the batteries of my camera would freeze. And there wasn't really anything to see anyway.)
