Product Review: Enjoy water-sporting in a Sevylor watercraft

November 3, 2021

The average avid paddler has most likely stumbled into a Sevylor inflatable. I have, thanks to Sevylor, sampled a Sevylor canoe on the Kilifi Creek. The most common water-sporting experiences along the Lamu Coastline are kite-surfing, sky-diving, wind-surfing and scuba-diving.

Our Trip to Essaouira Morocco

October 14, 2021

I’ve not felt more mesmerized, and I don’t think anyone would before a trip to Essaouira, Morocco. It’s interesting to have a hide-out that makes you forget your daily rendezvous. Yet, it’s more precious to discover a place that feels like a lifetime discovery and erases the darkness that can be associated with its constituent … More Our Trip to Essaouira Morocco

Of shaky hands …

Behind the scenes …

February 26, 2018

Getting an idea for posts has the dark sides. The behind-the-scenes. It’s worse when it’s burning inside you to centre them on real happenings around, while safely hiding enough content from the public. You struggle to trace a path, even though a blurred line. … More Behind the scenes …

What Were They Like?

February 17, 2018

*sigh* By Denise Levertov Did the people of Viet Nam use lanterns of stone? Did they hold ceremonies to reverence the opening of buds? Were they inclined to quiet laughter?

Residues of incomplete thoughts…

January 30, 2018

The ‘happy new year’ that people have been blurting out all about is beginning to take shape. First, quite some improvement on the weather’s mood swings. I notice it because I’m a sales guy.
