The sun - always like this in southeast Asia.

zanzibar paradise

After an early morning cab ride to the airport (arranged through a friend of a friend) I made it to Nungwi beach in Zanzibar, off the coast of East Africa. Zanzibar is one of those magical places that is so beautiful it will make you cry - definitely one of the most stunning places on the planet!

Sunset from the far East. Southeast Asia's definitely got some of the most gorgeous sunsets I've ever seen.
