Impressions from Tanzania

The African bush elephant is the largest land animal. Yet, the wide landscape easily fits multiple of the majestic creatures. The photo is meant to put life forms in perspective with nature and humble the human viewer.

While in Tanzania, I spent most of my time in Arusha, the city often termed the gate to the Serengeti and the Kilimanjaro. This photo is a snapshot of life outside that urban environment.

On the day trips to the rural areas surrounding Arusha, we always brought some games to break the ice.

In the orphanage where I used to help out, there were a couple of classrooms where the kids were taught the basics. Here the boy repeated to me what he had learned that day.

The Serengeti National Park is well known for its migration routes used by more than 1.5 million wildebeests and zebras. However, the landscapes themselves and abundance of wildlife are enough to leave a lasting impact.

Notably, not all of northern Tanzania’s landscapes are savannah. There are also lush forests, especially on the slopes of Mt. Meru and Kilimanjaro.
