FORMULA one superstar Lewis Hamilton, whose holiday began with a visit to Namibia recently, is continuing his African adventure.
The British driving ace posted on his Instagram yesterday that he had visited the Reteti Animal Sanctuary in Kenya.
His second stop after Namibia was, however, Rwanda, which he posted about three days ago.
“How does one describe such an experience that leaves you so speechless? My second stop was Rwanda. We were welcomed with smiles and music from the beautiful Rwandan people. This trip really showed me how diverse and rich in culture it is here. We hiked up through beautiful green fields where children would sing to us and up a volcano,” Hamilton said, also on Instagram.
About his Kenyan trip, he posted: “Thank you to the wonderful people at the Reteti Animal Sanctuary for not only hosting us, but more importantly, dedicating their time to rescue, research and conservation.
“They're the first indigenous, community-owned and run sanctuary in Africa and the work they do for these animals should be an inspiration to us all.
“They take in orphaned animals who likely wouldn't make it on their own and release them back into the wild when they're strong enough.”
He said his visit to the animal sanctuary had been “a truly centring experience, one that reinforces that we all share this planet”.
