This week, Karmen dives into the transformative experience of her 4th horseback safari across the Masai Mara in Kenya. She recounts the breathtaking wildlife encounters, from albino zebras to a newborn elephant, and shares unique details of the luxurious yet raw experience of camping and riding through the Mara. There is luxury in smallness, and an enchanting sense of connection with nature and wildlife. Karmen reflects on how the wild strips away ego and illusion of control, fostering a deep sense of trust and authenticity. She also discusses the emotional and liberating impact of the journey on her and other participants; it's not just an A Line Adventure, it's a journey of self-discovery.
