Kaylin lands in Ethiopia! My Wanderlust Sister


Kaylin having her first Ethiopian Food experience!
Injera and Shiro with local Cheese! 
Fresh off the plane from South Africa, after spotting Lions and Giraffes Kaylin had finally arrive in Ethiopia!! In June I had the chance to visit Kaylin, and get to see her part of Africa in Masaka  Uganda. 

We had a week to explore and have our own African Adventure! Ethiopia has a different feel then Uganda. Less East Africa and More North Africa. Animals are not the attraction but history that is carved into ancient rocks in the forms of Church's. 

Unfortunately it is rainy season here in Ethiopia. But being from Vancouver that didn't wash out our vacation plans! I am lucky to have a couple days of holiday at my Job, and took time off to enjoy Having Kaylin here and sights that Northern Ethiopia had to offer. 

Flying up north the Lalibella
Endless amount of Ethiopian Coffee

After the quick week, we had to say our goodbyes. It was so good to hear all about her Safari adventures and more about her life in Masaka. She has fallen in love with Africa. After years of hearing stories and seeing my desire to return again and again, She understands the love of living life as an adventure, challenging and pushing your comfort zone. Traveling with Kaylin was the first time we "vacationed" together. I hope it is an experience we get to do again, and I imagine in Africa. Something so comfortable about being with family while traveling. No barriers, nothing to hold you back. Just being together and capturing shared memories to reminisce about for years to come! Off to Europe she flew, to travel solo for awhile, my Wanderlust sister. It isn't so much of a I miss you emotion as a feeling proud of her spirit for adventure and what is to come!


We found plenty of time to relax too!
