  • Kenya was the 37th country I visited. This episode is from my first days there. Due to heavy rains I skipped over exploring national parks and stuck to the main roads all the way to Nairobi. I camped along the way and had a blast with the riders I met on the road.

    In April 2017 I left Australia for a solo trip around the world on a BMW F800GS. I named it “Are We There Yet” because I don't know my final destination or the duration of this journey.
    Throughout my journey, I was raising money for a young disabled child in Poland named Franek. Franek was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (weakness of the entire right side of the body) and he will require constant rehabilitation for the rest of his life. All the money raised will go directly to helping Franek and his family so he can lead a normal life as best as possible, so please donate generously: gogetfunding.c...

    Kinga, I was surprised to see that your riding jacket and pants are not waterproof. My girlfriend and I have been wearing Klim Latitude Jacket and Pants for a number of years now and love the fact they are GorTex lined, waterproof and breathable. Riding into rain? No need to stop, just zip up the front vents and keep going. Klim has excellent venting for hot weather and never get caught putting rain gear on in a downpour.

    I've been thinking about you, Kinga. Noraly has been repatriated from Peru. I gotta say, I do admire your spirit. I wish I had your editing skills. If you like frogs legs, go to the American south. They're ubiquitous. I've even seen them fresh cooked at gas stations. If you want to quickly and easily skin a clove of garlic place it under the broad side of your knife and give it a little smack with the heel of your hand. The skin will fall right off. To finely mince give it another, little harder smack. To skin a whole head place it in a metal jar or can with lid and shake vigorously.

Knowing now that the events seen here were actually several month ago, I guess we have quite a few more episodes to enjoy. Great.

    You are one of the few motorcycle Vloggers still mobile during the Covid-19 days. You be careful in East Africa. I toured thru Uganda, Kenya, tanzania (climbed Mt Kilimanjaro), Zambia, Rhodesia to th Africa in 1972. It was a lot safer politically then.but you have to be aware of wild animals & snakes. They can be anywhere. Never step out of your tent without a flashlight.
    We camped rough a few times. The Stars on the veldt in Tanzania are amazing. One night some of my travelling buddies slept under a trees. I woke at dawn as it was my turn to make coffee & porridge. As I was making breakfast I heard a rustling up in the tree. i checked it out as my 4 friends slumbered peacefully. I was stunned to discover a very large Black Mamba up in the tree. We didn'y know then that they do this to avoid predators at night!
    I didn't know what to do. Breakfast was amaking; but my friends would soon be awake and the big Mamba was also waking up. It was damn cold in the early morning at 3000' altitude. iwas at my wit's end as to what to do, so as to not disturb the snake; but to scare it away. i grabbed an empty cooking pot and started to gently tap the pot.
    The snakeslowly uncurled & crawled right between 2 of my sleeping pals. I quickly woke them up to see this magnificent snake. It was at least 10' long & about 3" in diameter. The good life sleep rough in Tanzania!
    Be really careful in Nairobi Kanja. I was attacked twice in 1972. Once in a market; where the thieves threw red pepper powder in my face and a second time in a bad area of Nairobi where I blundered into downtown. I was lucky to escape.

    Oh, that was so funny Kinga, sorry, I mean trying to put your waterproofs on in the rain. Been there, done that and cursed because I couldn't get the bloody things on over my leathers. I never learnt to stop before a deluge came !! Another great episode, they are keeping me going during shutdown. Thanks.
