I'm 48 years old, married to Pepe and have two boys, Dominic 9 years and Benedict 7 years. I've just sold my business and am taking a 'year out' - no doubt attributed by many to my mid life crisis! I have just returned from a couple of months in Africa, including successfully completing my PPL (flying) in South Africa. We have a home in Dorset, and our second home in Gilgil, in the Great Rift Valley in Kenya. We are going to Kenya for 5 months, with the boys spending a term at Pembroke School in Gilgil. Our time in Kenya will give us the opportunity to see if we can make a life for ourselves in Kenya or whether Gilgil will forever remain our 'delightful holiday home' With the boys in boarding school, we will have lots of time to dust off the travel gear and camping equipment and 'get out there' and explore lots of East Africa that we haven't yet seen. I'm particularly looking forward to spells in Tanzania and Ruanda as well as the more remote regions of Kenya.
