Stranded alone with a puncture in Kenya, will Richard panic or persevere?
Our novelist in Africa Richard has been exploring the wilds of Kenya on his second trip to the region, accompanied by his trusty old friend and guide Isaac. But in the latest update on his Karibuni Kenya blog, Isaac gets held up conducting a safari, so Richard strikes out alone for Arusha national park. And then gets a puncture. And then discovers both his spare tyres are flat. But this army boy isn’t going to beaten by a little hiccup like this, and rallies various locals to come to his aid… For some people, this would be a complete nightmare. For others, it’s the whole point of travelling: dealing with the unexpected and turning it into a great experience.
