Deeply saddened by the passing of my dear friend and former Prime Minister of Kenya, Mr. Raila Odinga. He was a towering statesman and a cherished friend of India. I had the privilege of knowing him closely since my days as Chief Minister of Gujarat and our association continued over the years. He had a special affection for India, our culture, values and ancient wisdom. This was reflected in his efforts to strengthen India-Kenya ties. He particularly admired Ayurveda and traditional medicine systems of India, having witnessed their positive impact on his daughter's health. I extend my deepest condolences to his family, friends and to the people of Kenya in this hour of grief.
Things I love: watching grassroots companies, which I discovered in their earliest infancy, growing in popularity over years, expanding & gaining recognition… something satisfying & joyous about watching baby brands I noticed early on, catching on!
The gentle slopes of the Aberdares glinting in sunbeams on a near CAVOK flying afternoon. The best of Kenya really is by air (I may be biased.) #aviation#avgeek#flying#Cessna#aviationlovers
Every safari is different. That’s the addiction. Watching wildlife move, play, hunt, feed, rest and mate in their own habitat is such a privilege! These 2 brothers play fighting was one of those once-in-a-lifetime experiences! #Kenya#photography#photographer#wildearth#travel
@simonraven@raven_brothers Was there earlier this year. Unbelievably untouched, some fun scenes in the city too… older gentlemen playing bottle tops in the squares.

What a beautiful experience hiking in the northern Western Ghats, a UNESCO protected mountain range for its unique biodiversity. Special peaceful surrounds and gorgeous views!

Have you ever considered a wellness retreat in India but didn’t know where to start? They don’t have to be hardcore & basic. Some… are just heavenly, whilst still incorporating traditional holistic therapies and nutrition #wellness#WellnessJourney#India#spiritual
Journey to Socotra, Yemen - wild camping & no electricity for 8 days, yet required a fully charged camera at all times! I doubled up on batteries & tried the Belkin BoostCharge Pro Fast Wireless Charger - kept my phone charged the whole trip, easy to use & intuitive! @belkin
