Dina Tae

London, UK

Heya, my name is Dina Tae. I'm 29 years old from the UK, and half British and half Jamacian. At 21, I left my studies as a pediatric nurse to explore the world, first I lived in Thailand for 8 months and then New Zealand for 1.5 years before returning to the UK. Since then, I've continued to run away from the UK, having visited 33 countries. I created a travel website this year, foreverlivingyes.com, to help others explore the world, too. My style is Boujee but on a budget. I find amazing 4 or 5-star packaged holidays or hotels with a premium vibe but at lower rates. Finding these amazing deals usually takes hours and patience, but I'm here to offer my time to help you live your best YES too!

Complete Guide to Nairobi

Welcome to the Green City in the Sun! Nairobi is a beautiful city with lots to offer. Because the city is large and can have a lot of traffic, these itineraries cover a specific area of the city. This will help you spend your day exploring— not sitting in traffic. All locations (except the game drive in the national park) are accessible by Uber or Bolt. These schedules are action-packed, so if you prefer to travel at a more relaxed pace, you may want to skip some activities or spread them over multiple days. Itineraries are written assuming you will visit the Giraffe Center and Elephant Orphanage in the morning. If this is not your plan, you will have time to do one set of activities in the morning and another in the afternoon. Be sure to check out reviews before you go (especially for nightclubs) to make sure they match your vibe! Your afternoon/evening options are: • Wildlife Experience • Downtown Experience • Kenyan Culture • Karen Experience • Westlands Experience • Ngong Road Experience • Market & Museum • Outdoor Experience • Mall Experience If you want to visit other parts of Kenya, contact us at bookings@kambucampers.com for custom itineraries and tour packages!
