I set the alarm for 6.30 and am just in time to see a few dozen Guinea fowl at the watering hole joined by some zebra.
Breakfast is our last meal at the watering hole at Kilaguni, and we are not disappointed by the show with 2 warthogs appearing from the bush - and yes they really do look like Pumba in the Lion King.

We head off with Jethro, our driver, who is a real character, – he welcomes us every morning with his ‘Good morning to you’ song.
The first game we spot are impala with their unmistakable antlers, then we come across a herd of zebra crossing (that becomes a well-used joke), dik-dik and giraffe.

There’s a variety of reasons people come on the Kenyan Experience with the Nasio Trust.
For some it's the idea of combining travelling across Kenya on safari with meeting and helping 'real' Kenyans. Some take part because October is the time when their kids are leaving the nest to go to college or university, and they want something positive to focus on.

Trying to describe the 6 weeks I spent in Kenya to people when I came home was actually very difficult without having a good 3 hours to spare. Not only was it the most incredible 6 weeks I have had in my life, but also it taught me many life lessons.
From elation, sadness, delight and relief, these were just some of the emotions that I went through on my trip. I was able to experience Kenya and the trip made me realize how fortunate I am and as well as giving me the opportunity to see and do many things I never thought I would get the chance to do, and for this I have to give all thanks to the charity.

The mud hut of Mama Dancan was completed on the 15th of July 2015 with the official turnover of the key. During the turnover we have also given her new furniture, a mattress with blanket and food items which she was very pleased to have received.
The construction started 9th of July 2015 with the carpenter laying the basic structures for the hut. After 2 days, volunteers from the UK, friends from Kakamega and staff from St. Irene were able to help by gathering water for the mud mixture, putting mud in the structures and carpentry works.
