Libya, Mali and Senegal someday :)
Recently, I have been drawn to the African continent. Simply put, there’s lots here to explore for those who are curious about cultures, geography and history.

The muddy red clay trails leading into the park are quiet. It looks like the mid-day rain has kept people away. There are only a few obstacles to contend with here in Sigiriya this muddy afternoon. These include the slippery metal stairs, muddy trails and the small pest problem. Snake holes are everywhere, but signsContinue reading “Palace in the Sky”
