Climbing
Hakuna Matata, its Kilimanjaro again for the 3rd time
Great way to end 2023, summiting Kilimanjaro for the third time, with each one from my group making to the top. And each of the climbs to Kilimanjaro done from different routes. The earlier ones were from Lemosho and Rongai routes, and this time it was from Machame route. Looking forward to many more adventures that have been planned for 2024 starting from the very first week of 2024 in Argentina.
