Tanzania

During our Round the World trip in 2018, we joined my cousin Sean, his wife Nicky, and our friend Dan in August on a two week excursion in Tanzania with One Seed Expedition. Along with nine other people, we hiked Mount Kilimanjaro (NOT an easy feat!!), hung out with the Chagga people in Moshi, fulfilled a lifelong dream of an African safari, and then finally relaxed on the peaceful beaches in Zanzibar.
