I am now in the Chyulu Hills region of Kenya, an important elephant migration corridor between Amboseli National Park and Tsavo National Park. I am staying at Campi ya Kanzi, one of Africa's finest eco-lodges that supports The Kuku Group Ranch Maasai. Today I learned just how dedicated the camp is to ensuring a future for the region in its joint effort with The Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust. It is an incredible endeavor that is based upon providing an economic, healthcare and education foundation for the people.

At the heart of the project is the protection of the land and the wildlife, which are important assets for the Maasai. When you stay at the camp, you contribute to the well being of approximately 17,000 people, 280,000 acres of land and wildlife that number in the thousands.

A truly amazing project and as you can see, a beautiful place to experience.
