Journey Beyond with Mwendo Adventures.
Episode 19 of Birmingham Shines features a conversation with Joe Caruga and Jason McCracken.
Joe is a native of Kenya who moved to Birmingham to study. Jason is a Birmingham entrepreneur. They met at Dawson Memorial Church and that led to travels to East Africa and the formation of Mwendo Adventures.
Mwendo Adventures provides bespoke safaris, climbs and other adventures on the African continent (with other stops on the way).
In this conversation we talk about what makes African special---with an emphasis on Kenya and other destinations in East Africa--and what it's like to travel with Mwendo Adventures. We also talk about what is beautiful about Africa and the importance of connection, community and living in the moment. There's also a surprise after the tag at the end.
Thanks to Erin Street for introducing me to Joe.
