SABA Episode #7 — Congo Nile Trail & Staring at the Muzungu
That photo above, that’s something I can totally get behind! Miha took a picture of Cesar Niyonkuru before they embarked on a lovely chat about the Congo Nile Trail, a hiking or cycling adventure on the eastern side of Lake Kivu that is the topic of the seventh episode of SEE AFRICA BREATHE AFRICA.

SABA Episode #6 — Gifts for Kids, Begging & Smart Giving
The sixth episode of our SEE AFRICA BREATHE AFRICA podcast explores one of the trickiest questions we get from travellers: What should I bring for children I will meet?

SABA Episode #5 — Grauer’s Gorillas, Bonobos & Community Issues

Do Not Hesitate to Ask (See You Next Week)
Yesterday’s road snacks by Chef Rama was the last story in the rich and fascinating Staying Safe and Healthy series. We will be back next week with the next theme: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ). We don’t want that “frequent” part to discourage anyone. Every question can qualify and every question matters — not just about…
