Hey Guys,
Just wondered your opinion of some of the photos I took from Africa, Would anybody else like to add their photos of poverty and the african ppl?


Taken away from the tourist destinations. One of the tens of beggars that surrounded us, begging for food etc. This guy was so high at the time, im not even sure he realised I was taking a picture.


n extract from my diary while in Kenya:

During the breaks we played with the children, during lessons some of us read to the children. Rachel seemed to have a natural talent for this, when she read a fairytale everyone listened, no fidgeting. That's going to a be a memory that's lasts a long time. During the breaks I played football with them, we also sang songs like Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes. The children are pleasant, they all want to hold you hand or sit on your shoulder. They`re were always cries of ME! ME! ME! when we were about from the kids wanting a piggyback. Africa is a hands on place. Everybody wants to hold your hand or pat your arm or stroke you hair. It is quite different from out way of life. I forgot my camera! I think I missed some good photos, Nevermind.


Taken near the summit of Mount Kenya, the second highest mountain on the african continent.
