Why this trip

The river at the edge of the forest.

Kabini runs on forest time: out before dawn, back by ten, still through the heat, out again at four. We built the week around that rhythm and a lodge on the water.

Two forest drives, a boat at dusk, a naturalist at dinner, and nothing else you have to do.

“Sightings are never promised. The quiet is.”
Curator’s note
