Live! From New York…?

Each spring, Rick and Judi treat four members of our Arusha, Tanzania staff to an all-expense paid, two-week trip to the United States. The visiting staff members stay at Rick and Judi’s home in Boston, and some even receive invitations to visit past safari travelers all over the country!

Today, head guide, Emmanuel Kileo, who is mid-way through his two-week adventure in the US, is on his way to Texas via New York City with our photography trip leader, Andy Biggs.

Andy reported, “NYC is blowing his mind! We are having a blast together. I took him to Tribeca and SoHo last night. Rockefeller Plaza and Times Square today. Ran into Kathie Lee on the street and said I will see her on the show in 2 weeks. And right now we are in the 7th row at The Lion King. Smiles on his face!!!!”
