twiga & kipepeo

A journey, or safari, solely within the Maasai Mara, Kenya, in September 2009: four nights at Kicheche Bush Camp, in Olare Orok, and four nights at Mara Safari Camp, in Mara North Conservancy. Though the Mara was still relatively green, at this time many other parts of Kenya continued to be severely affected by drought, and the tourism industry is still recovering from the effects of post-election violence in 2008.

China

This book illustrates a journey around China in winter 2008. A country undergoing great change, with much to learn and much for others to learn from, China’s diversity took us from the ancient Forbidden City and Great Wall through the Soviet-esque northern architecture in freezing Heilongjiang province, the startling Terracotta Warriors and cuddly giant pandas, to the ultra-modern bustle and warmth of HK.
