Joy Juma loved camping and being in the African wilderness when she was a young girl. Early on, she decided to work in conservation and has been involved with many different projects over her career. Today, Joy is a key member of the Zeitz Foundation, founded by Jochen Zeitz in 2008 and headquartered at his stunning retreat, Segera, in Kenya. Joy manages many projects for the Foundation, including wildlife conservation, the (mostly female!) anti-poaching unit, local schools, and community enterprises aimed at empowering women in particular. Most recently she is involved in a collaboration with a few other lodges in the Laikipia region of Kenya to expand the roaming rangelands for Rhinos. We sat down together at Segera to chat about all of this. Enjoy our conversation!

Mike Jackson and his wife Sarah are beloved members of our family. Mike has been travelling in Africa since the 1980s - before, during and after his distinguished career in the British Army as Chief of the General Staff. There is hardly an area he hasn't visited and our conversation here at home in Kenya touches on where he has been, what he loves and why, as well as his thoughts on how Africa has changed over the years. Please enjoy.

Robert Lochiam is one of those guides who I know I need to interview after just a few hours together. I was excited to visit a new lodge in an important area for conservation in Kenya and Robert, who goes by his surname, Lochiam, showed us just how vital the area is to the "Super Tuskers": the elephants around Amboseli National Park at the foot of Mt. Kilimanjaro whose tusks often drag on the ground, and to all the other animals coexisting beside them. In our chat by the pool at the new Angama lodge, you will hear of how a rhino led the charge (pun intended!) on his career as a guide, and how his passion for helping preserve wild spaces for Africa's animals only grows stronger the more he knows - which is already a lot! Enjoy!
