"Here is a man who suffers so his readers can laugh." -- Daily Telegraph Bill Bryson travels to Kenya in support of CARE International. All royalties and profits go to CARE International. Bryson visits Kenya at the invitation of CARE International, the charity dedicated to eradicating poverty. Kenya is a land of contrasts, with famous game reserves and a vibrant culture. It also provides plenty to worry a traveller like Bill Bryson, fixated as he is on the dangers posed by snakes, insects and large predators.

The resultant diary, though short in length, contains the trademark Bryson stamp of wry observation and curious insight.

Always love Bill Bryson's writing, he is funny and yet has a sightly lemon twist to his books - he sees things from a quirky but realist point-of-view non the less. An easy read and enlightening as we look at the world that do not have something as simple as safe water.
Thank you Bill for reminding us to think of others
