#InLoveWithAfrica: Mombasa, In My Mind’s Eye

#InLoveWithAfrica: Mombasa, In My Mind’s Eye

AFKTravel recently launched a series called ‪#‎InLoveWithAfrica‬, which comprises a series of “love letters” to various African destinations, written by travel writers who are passionate about the continent.

In this installment, Susan McKee rejoices in Mombasa.

“When I look east, toward the water, I see the ghost images of centuries of sailing ships coming and going from the Arabian Peninsula, the Indian subcontinent, China and even Europe. When I looking west, there’s the bustling modern port, a historic gateway to the heart of East Africa but with the distinctive sounds and scents of the Arab world. Past, present and future converge in my mind’s eye as I think about this complex city, the second largest in Kenya.”
