- Gitonga Wandai fell in love. He fell in love with the outdoors. With wide open spaces. This love encouraged him to dream big. His dream was to stand on the roof of the world. To summit Mt. Everest. The pursuit of his dream brought with it big wins and big losses. Watch as Gitonga takes us on a journey that will have you reevaluate your dreams and what you are willing to do achieve them.

Thank you Gîtonga for sharing your journey with us; yours is one of the most beautiful, motivational, and inspirational stories that I have ever heard. Yours is a great lesson that, indeed, one can go after their heart's desires and dreams, if they put their mind into it. Continue inspiring us and leading us to the mountains whenever they summon us. ❤❤❤
Hope a day will come when we will be sharing our story
Soooo captivating and inspiring!
Great work comrade! I remember those PA days particularly the machakos hike.You and Dan Rono helped some of us carry stuff because we could not manage to hike with loads. You led us well.All the best in your endeavours. The mountains are your terrain.Sisi tuliwacha after graduation from K.U 😃.

The soft spoken assessor 😁
Sometimes what brings us so much life also brings us death
Sounds familiar. I've never forgotten how Mt Kilimanjaro rejected me just when I got to kibo base camp. I was feeling terrific all the way leading my clients through the two camps and I think Kili was watching and wasn't happy. I looked happy into my fifth day so when I just got to the kibo camp, I threw up hard. Then things spiralled out of control. I tried to start the summit with the group in the night but my guide from his observation insisted I descent immediately.
Wow!
Wow Dare to dream
Wow
Mwaaaaaki 🔥🔥🔥🔥
How far you are from your destination? What is the answer?
The journey is as beautiful as the destination indeed. Sending you love and light Gitonga. Thank you for sharing your story and cheers to more hikes with the unmatched Hikemaniak 🤍🤍🤍
