The other people who worked at the camp included the cooks, the wait staff, the camp managers Toby and Maxine, and other Maasai who fulfilled various other duties around Entim. They were always extremely courteous and able to help in any way possible. I'm from the South and we consider ourselves to be very friendly and warm, but everyone I've spent time with in Africa has been equally nice and hospitable. I hope ...

wildfolio: How Do You Describe Africa?
http://wildfolio.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-describe-africa.html
Saturday, August 27, 2011. How Do You Describe Africa? I've had friends and family members ask me, "So, what is Africa really. I mean, not the gorgeous animals or scenery but the people. Are they happy? Isn't there a lot of violence? Tell me what it's really. Like, without the pro-Africa commercial thrown in.". Think Africa is all wilderness and wildlife without big modern cities? Http:/ www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-51356.0.html. Yep, that's the effect Africa has on those who fall in love with it.

wildfolio: My Love Affair with Africa
http://wildfolio.blogspot.com/2012/09/africa-real-africa.html
Tuesday, September 11, 2012. My Love Affair with Africa. My greatest fear is that I'll never return, like Isaak Dinesen after she left the continent for the last time. At the end of Out of Africa. When the words appear on the screen: "Isaak Dinesen never returned to Africa." How sad is that? I don't want that to be my fate. And I'm determined that it won't be. I'll be back. And if I have anything to say about it (and you know I do), I just may stay. How Do You Describe Africa? March 31, 2013 at 4:33 AM.
