Small Book of Personal Photos:
MJ travels the world with some photos of home which she says is an excellent ice-breaker when she meets local people. It certainly worked for the Maasai who crowded round to see pictures of her house, city, children and pet.

A zebra's stripes are thought to confuse tsetse flies, thus protecting the animal from bites. My driver/guide Abdul figures the same principal applies to his black and white patterned shirt he often wears on safari. It's an idea well worth trying.
