Explore Uganda Unplugged on Safari
Uganda Unplugged on Safari – A Safari is an inner and outer journey. There is more to a safari in Uganda than measured in miles or kilometers. It is not clicking a list of animals and birds we might have seen; it is not ticking off lodges where one has stayed or the number of parks visited. There is the inner Safari, something that eludes most.
An unplugged Safari is both an inner and outer journey. The Important thing is what a safari does inside of you. The Memories within remain with us long after we have gone back home. The lasting memories are imprinted on the heart. The new friendships you formed and the sights, sounds, and smells you have experienced on your Safari are much more significant than a meaningless like on Facebook.
Africa – has a ring to it like no other continent. Once you have visited, you will never be the same again. We at Kabiza Wilderness Safaris remember that we are not just putting together a safari.
We are not only giving you an itinerary with dates, activities, and lodges. We keenly know that your Safari is an inner and outer journey taking you to a continent where Elephants trod the first roads.
Discover Uganda Unplugged on Safari
Uganda Unplugged on Safari: Say the word Safari and the images of endless Savannah Plains in your mind. Say the word, and you are trekking through Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, spending that hour with a mountain gorilla family.
A Safari is, however, more than a wildlife tour. Safari is a Swahili word meaning Journey, which the travel community has hijacked for wildlife tours and other trips in Africa and different parts of the world.
Swahili’s words have been incorporated into the language of those who live where Swahili is spoken, to those in Kenya, Tanzania, parts of Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Rwanda. When they say Safari – they are talking about a trip, a journey to visit their home village, family, and friends. Most such trips are relational. The reality is that only a few Africans have gone on a Safari as we know it, where you see Gorillas, Chimpanzees, Wildlife, and memory-creating sceneries.
Most of us come from societies that are mostly destination orientated. We measure time, distance, and outcome, become impatient, and want it all now. We are standing on a train looking out the window, looking for the destination missing the Journey itself.
An unplugged, the focus is on the moment, and it is about time, patience, and allowing things to unfold naturally before your eyes. Put the to-do list aside and take in what is before you. Let the experience resonate within, and enjoy the gift of the now on your Unplugged African Safari – Journey.
Explore Uganda Unplugged on Safari – The Inner and outer Journey
A Safari is both an inner and outer journey. To every outward Journey (Safari), there is an inner journey (Safari). Where you stay while on safari influences that inner Journey; if you remain in a Backpacker place, you will be inundated with the sounds of celebration well into the night. If you stay in a lodge with 30 rooms, the ambiance differs from a small tented camp or lodge. The place and the surroundings influence your Safari and your Journey.
Imagine sitting on the veranda of your tent. The sounds of the African night come near you. Above you is a canopy of stars like you have never seen before. The moon is rising and illuminating the night sky. There are no other sounds except that of a drum in the distance. The roar of a lion, and the trump of an elephant, blend in. You reflect on today’s safari wildlife drives or primate tracking experiences. You take your journal and write – no longer focused on the destination, no longer seeing how many species of this or that you have seen. You write about your outer and inner Journey – the heart’heart’sctions on Safari.
An African Safari is not about schedules, destinations, or kilometers. Still, I am waiting for nature to unfold. To unwrap those little miracles before our eyes. we behold with our eyes but see things differently with the eyes of our hearts…Enjoy the unplugged Journey in the Pearl of Africa.
