| August 28, 2017 | – From August 15, 2017 in Tanzania, Africa – Mack’s SnoreBlocker earplugs are my saving grace. I only woke up once last night to dogs fighting around 2:30am, and then again around 5am to the rooster crowing. Yet, we all found our ways to breakfast, successfully greeting “habari asubuhi” to […]
| August 23, 2017 | – From August 14, 2017 in Tanzania, Africa – Our “good night’s rest” didn’t come so peacefully last night. Turns out, the dogs start fighting at 10PM, and continue until 4AM, when there’s a slow transition from dogs barking to roosters crowing. I think the roosters are confused, because I’m […]
| August 13, 2017 | I can’t really do much complaining about my travels to Tanzania. There was something comforting about solo travel to a familiar place. Despite the multiple delays from New York to Boston, and Boston to Amsterdam, my journey was still relatively stress-free. Now contrast this to the 13-hour layover in Ethiopia, […]
| August 12, 2017 | Through the divine combination of manifestation and hard work/determination, I have landed myself back in Tanzania! In April 2016, I promised I’d return to the place that shaped my professional career and broadened my horizons, inspiring me in ways I am still discovering. And… here I am, back in Arusha! […]

From volunteer Physical Therapy mission work to exploring Arusha to safaris in Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park, EduTours Africa surpassed my expectations for the two-week journey. I left Tanzania feeling incredibly inspired, with a renewed sense of energy. Prior to leaving for this […]
| May 16, 2016 | I hope you stumbled upon this post because you’re going on a safari! Or… thinking about going on one. Or dreaming about it. Or you’re kind-of obsessed with the idea of it, don’t feel it’s achievable right now, but want to start preparing for when the opportunity presents itself. Either […]
| May 15, 2016 | Tanzania is simply rich with nature and wildlife. I felt like everywhere I turned, there was something new to soak in and the two days our group spent on safari were surreal. After the plethora of animals seen at Ngorongoro Crater on our first day, I could only imagine what Tarangire […]
| May 12, 2016 | One of Africa’s natural wonders. Vast plains and forests. Biodiverse grazers, prey, predators, and threatened species. Waterways and dust-kicking paths. Coexistence with nomadic, pastoral Maasai. A wide-open sanctuary. Pure and untouched. This 14-mile diameter, 600-meter deep, 300 square kilometer, gaping volcanic caldera is home to an expansive array of wildlife and dramatic scenery. […]
