Hi :) I made a small puzzle adventure game called "AM I?"

I did this game entirely on my own (aside from the music, for which I should thank my friend Sasha and my brother ❤️), so I feel it as a very personal thing. It's a little weird, at times a absurd, it didn't sell a crazy amount of copies, but so far the people that played it had a good time with it, and that's already more than enough as a reward. More than what I would have thought actually. Now it's on sale, so in case you are interested you can check it here:

Thanks!

Celebrate the Christmas Holidays with a Tanzania Safari and Zanzibar Beach Holiday, this Christmas, why not trade the winter chills for the warm embrace of the African sun? A Tanzania safari combined with a Zanzibar beach holiday offers an unforgettable holiday experience filled with breathtaking landscapes, incredible wildlife, and idyllic beaches. This unique adventure is perfect for those looking to celebrate the festive season in a truly magical setting. Imagine embarking on a thrilling Tanzania safari, where you can witness the majestic Big Five in their natural habitat, followed by a serene Zanzibar beach holiday on powdery white sands. This combination of adventure and relaxation makes for the perfect Christmas getaway, allowing you to create lasting memories in one of the world’s most enchanting destinations. Embrace the spirit of the Christmas holidays surrounded by nature’s wonders and the stunning beauty of East Africa!

The Allure of a Tanzania Safari

A Tanzania safari is an extraordinary way to immerse yourself in the beauty of nature and witness some of the world’s most iconic wildlife. With its diverse ecosystems and rich biodiversity, Tanzania is a prime destination for safari enthusiasts. The holiday season is an excellent time for a Tanzania safari, as the weather is generally dry, making it ideal for game viewing.

Serengeti National Park

One of the highlights of any Tanzania safari is a visit to Serengeti National Park. Famous for its vast savannahs and the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras traverse the plains, the Serengeti is a sight to behold. During the Christmas holidays, the park is teeming with life, and you can expect to see not only the migratory animals but also prides of lions, elephants, and cheetahs.

Imagine spending Christmas Day on a thrilling game drive, spotting these incredible creatures in their natural habitat. Many lodges in the Serengeti offer special holiday meals and experiences, allowing you to celebrate Christmas surrounded by the stunning African wilderness.

Ngorongoro Crater

Another must-visit destination during your Tanzania safari is the Ngorongoro Crater. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to an incredible variety of wildlife residing within the caldera. The lush landscape of the crater provides a unique setting for wildlife viewing, where you can easily spot the Big Five: lions, elephants, leopards, buffalo, and rhinos.

The Ngorongoro Crater offers a serene and picturesque backdrop for your holiday adventure. Enjoy a festive picnic lunch against the stunning scenery, making your Christmas holidays truly special as you revel in nature’s beauty.

Tarangire National Park

For a different safari experience, consider adding Tarangire National Park to your Tanzania safari itinerary. Known for its large elephant herds and iconic baobab trees, Tarangire is less crowded than the Serengeti, offering a more intimate wildlife experience. The park’s unique landscapes and diverse wildlife make it a fantastic spot for photography and exploration during the Christmas holidays.

Cultural Experiences

A Tanzania safari during the Christmas holidays also provides opportunities to engage with local cultures. Many safari operators offer visits to Maasai villages, where you can learn about their rich traditions and lifestyle. Engaging with the Maasai people adds depth to your holiday experience, allowing you to appreciate the cultural diversity of Tanzania.

Transitioning to a Zanzibar Beach Holiday

After the exhilarating experiences of a Tanzania safari, it’s time to unwind on the stunning beaches of Zanzibar. The island’s white sandy shores and turquoise waters provide the perfect setting for relaxation after your safari adventure.

Stunning Beaches

Zanzibar is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Nungwi and Kendwa are popular choices known for their vibrant atmosphere and stunning sunset views. Spend your Christmas holidays lounging on the beach, swimming in the warm Indian Ocean, and enjoying water sports like snorkeling and diving.

For a more serene experience, consider the quieter beaches of Paje or Jambiani. These idyllic spots are perfect for couples and families looking for a peaceful retreat, allowing you to relax and disconnect while soaking up the sun.

Water Activities

A Zanzibar beach holiday is incomplete without exploring the incredible marine life surrounding the island. The coral reefs offer fantastic snorkeling and diving opportunities, where you can encounter colorful fish, sea turtles, and even dolphins. For a memorable Christmas experience, book a private snorkeling trip with a local guide, exploring the vibrant underwater world together.

Additionally, consider a sunset dhow cruise along the coast. Sailing into the sunset while enjoying a refreshing drink is a romantic way to celebrate the holiday season and create lasting memories.

Cultural Richness of Stone Town

While in Zanzibar, don’t miss the chance to explore Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site rich in history and culture. The narrow streets are lined with bustling markets, charming shops, and historical landmarks. Visit the House of Wonders, Old Fort, and Sultan’s Palace to immerse yourself in the island’s fascinating heritage.

Stone Town also offers fantastic dining options. Enjoy a romantic dinner at one of the rooftop restaurants, where you can savor local cuisine while taking in breathtaking views of the sunset over the Indian Ocean. This culinary experience will add a special touch to your Christmas holidays.

Creating Lasting Memories

Combining a Tanzania safari with a Zanzibar beach holiday creates a well-rounded holiday experience filled with adventure, relaxation, and cultural exploration. This unique blend allows you to celebrate Christmas in a way that you’ll cherish forever.

Luxurious Accommodations

Both the safari lodges and beach resorts offer luxurious accommodations that cater to holiday travelers. Many lodges in Tanzania provide festive dinners and special holiday activities, allowing you to celebrate Christmas surrounded by nature. In Zanzibar, indulge in beachfront resorts with spa services, romantic dinners, and breathtaking ocean views.

Conclusion: Celebrate Christmas in Paradise

Choosing to spend your Christmas holidays on a Tanzania safari followed by a Zanzibar beach holiday is a decision you won’t regret. This incredible journey offers a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, allowing you to experience the beauty of Africa while celebrating the festive season.

From thrilling game drives in the Serengeti to tranquil beach days in Zanzibar, every moment will be filled with wonder and joy. As you embark on this holiday adventure, you’ll create lasting memories that you’ll cherish for a lifetime. Celebrate this Christmas in paradise, surrounded by the stunning landscapes and rich cultures of Tanzania and Zanzibar.

馬卡迪卡迪鹽沼 Makgadikgadi Pan

我在波札那沒有參加旅行��，是自己從馬翁Maun搭公車去格韋塔Gweta，因為這裡離馬卡迪卡迪(Makgadikgadi Pan)和恩賽(Nxai Pan)國家公園不遠，住在鎮上的Gweta Lodge，就可以參加他們的國家公園一日獵遊game drive活動。

我們六點半抱著毯子出發，因為天還沒亮還好冷，尤其是開車的時候，風吹起來那種刺骨的冷。不過才在前往國家公園的大馬路上，就已經看到長頸鹿、鴕鳥和角馬了。

今天因為我們的嚮導聽說斑馬遷徙已經到了河邊，所以我們今天開比較遠到另外的Phuduhudu這個入口進去，從這裡到河邊比較近，不然一般他們會走離lodge比較近的Malokwane入口。

當我們停在國家公園入口買門票時，還看到一隻大象過馬路，心裡一邊希望他走過來靠近我們一點，另一邊又希望他不要走太過來以免危險，哈哈！

進入國家公園後，一路上��直看到很多斑馬在往河道方向移動，畢竟這裡是斑馬遷徙的主場地啊！

我們老是看到斑馬和長頸鹿以及角馬待在一起，他們三種動物一個看得遠，一個嗅覺好，一個聽力佳，正好可以互相配合幫助。

我們花了好長一段時間才到河邊，這裡的沙地真是非常考驗開車人的功力，是我在非洲這一路上最震盪搖晃的一次，甚至有一段路人會像鐘擺一樣大幅左右搖擺呢！

乾枯的河道很寬，據說雨季洪水時期會是滿水位的，但現在已經有一年多的乾旱了，河床已經沒有河水，只有幾漥淺淺的池水。

斑馬就一群群三三兩兩的前來喝水，原來斑馬遷徙不是我以為影片中那種角馬奮不顧身的過河，而是慢慢的一路一直走來。

河床上到處都是斑馬。

沿著河道走，也還有不少其他動物，大彎角羚Kudu、黑斑羚Impala、黑背豺狼Jackly、小岩羚steenbok、狐獴mongoose等。

然後我們看到天上盤旋了不少禿鷹，才發現不遠處有一具被吃掉一半的小象屍體，大自然的食物鏈。

路上遇到其他人互相交換資訊，他們說他們營地那邊有一大群河馬，於是我們又趕去前面的河床找河馬了。

這裡整個河床上躺了一大群一大群的河馬，感覺睡成堆的河馬像是小饅頭，又像是地瓜。旁邊還有另一群大象，我們甚至看到一隻大象追著兩隻小河馬跑，小河馬們趕緊逃進了水池裡，其實河馬跑得也不慢嘛！

最常看到的黑斑羚羊(Impala)因為屁股後面的黑線條和尾巴形成一個M，也被戲稱為‘’麥當勞‘’。

Gweta Lodge還有其他活動，不過活動都是要至少三人才會成行，我算是蠻幸運的，遇到一對美國夫妻因為前一天自己開車去Nxai Pan太辛苦，於是Makgadikgadi就放棄自己開車，直接參加旅館的game drive，這才讓我們的獵遊成行。

要去卡薩內Kasane的交通，可以參考我在背包客棧的分享。

A gorilla habituation experience is different from normal gorilla trekking in Bwindi because it involves visiting a group that has not completed the habituation process.
