Contrary to yesteryear's travails and turbulence, tourists today spend their days strolling along the white sand beaches, windsurfing, water skiing and wallowing in the warm waters. Those who want to go further hop on a dhow and sail down the channel, out to any of the outlying islands, or to snorkelling sites where the range of colours of coral and sea creatures has to be seen to be believed. And of course, those who delight in stepping back in time just have to wander the alleys of Lamu town, or the ancient ruins of Takwa and Pate, with a guide whose tales will transport them through the centuries.

A WASTE COLLECTION & RECYCLING PREPARATION SOCIAL ENTERPRISE lastic waste is corrupting our land and oceans at an alarming rate. In Kwale County, Diani Plastics Plus has launched a pioneering social enterprise to engage with fellow Kenyans and residents to sustainably remove the plastic and waste littering public land, residential areas, roadsides, drains, rivers, beaches and ocean.

Waste pollution degrades our health and environment. Over-flowing land fills pose health risks and rob people of productive land. Pollution is killing marine life and contaminating food chains. Reducing the impact of a modern menace in a sustainable . manner is a significant challenge requiring high levels of commitment, a well-developed strategy and plenty of determination. Diani Plastics Plus has created a 'closed loop' solution and hopes to inspire others to get involved too.

Diani Plastics Plus has successfully attracted hoteliers, businesses and other community members to become sponsors of Green Station collection points and a nearby depot. Thanks to generous sponsorship, the enterprise is setting up more than 10 initial Green Stations, from Tiwi to Shimoni. Green Stations will have four large bins, labeled: plastic, glass, paper and metal. Green Team Operators will be on duty to help educate users and ensure collected waste is regularly taken to the depot. At the depot, where sheds and workshops are being constructed, waste will be processed for up-cycling or recycling. With assistance from Base Titanium, the depot has three industrial shredders and two briquette presses. Plastic will be shredded, compacted, baled and stored in readiness for sales to recycling manufacturers. Glass will be up-cycled and crushed for use or sales to manufacturers, along with shredded metal. Paper will be pulped and pressed into briquettes effectively reducing the felling of trees for charcoal.

LEADING IN SUSTAINABLE CONSERVATION Over the past years The Sands at Nomad, a boutique hotel located on the award winning Diani Beach has been taking steps to reduce and improve it's impact as a hotel on it's natural environment. Visitors will not find plastic bottles or drinking straws, hotel information is all paper free coming in the form of the Sands at Nomad APP, all glass bottles are stored and recycled or up cycled, glass water bottles are refilled by the supplier, drinking glasses are made from up cycled bottles, and the list goes on. In June 2017 The Sands at Nomad took this a step further by initiating another two projects, the first was the creation of a turtle hatchery for relocated nests. This project kicked off after a request by The Diani Turtle Watch for a secure hatchery to be created at the hotel. The reason for this was that by the end of May, all the safe and secure nesting sites along Diani beach were full meaning there was no more space for other nests that were still being laid on the beach below tidal walls where the hatchlings in the eggs were never going to have the chance to survive. Sea turtles are a marine reptile who's numbers worldwide dropped to a 'threatened' status over the past decades due to loss of habitat and nesting sites, over fishing, drowning or injury in fishing nets and health problems linked to the amount of plastics which are ending up in the oceans. On the 21st of June 2017 the first Green sea turtle nest was translocated to the new hatchery at The Sands, one week later a female Green turtle found the hatchery on her own laying over one hundred eggs. After these two, eight more nests were relocated to the hatchery until there were 10 nests all marked, safe and secure above the tidal line. The result of this was that by the end of October 2017 around 1000 baby sea turtles had hatched from the hatchery and made it to the ocean, a huge success for such a new project. The second project was The Sands Marine Center, located a mere five minute walk from the hotel reception and reached along a forest trail through 'corral-rag coastal forest' home to the memorable Angolan Colobus monkeys, Black-and-Rufus elephant shrews and a whole host of other fauna and flora. The Sands at Nomad's marine center was set up to be a centralized location where ocean conservation, turtle conservation and sustainability projects could be based and showcased to interested visitors to raise awareness and attention to sustainable practices and the current state of the oceans. The marine center project began in late 2017 with the renovation of an old boathouse, walls were painted, posters were printed, tables and desks were made, and information was collected until an educational journey was created. One side of the Marine center was set up to draw ones attention to the negative affects we as humans have on sea turtles and the oceans, another was given to the Diani Turtle Watch as a base for their operations, another was set up as a turtle monitoring station where scuba diving guests wanting to get involved can take part in an identification and monitoring program from which the data collected can then be used to locate and monitor individuals and the population of a key environmental indicator species. These two projects, combined with the many other steps towards sustainability and environmental responsibility has lead to The Sands At Nomad recently being awarded a silver certification by the environmental body Eco-Tourism Kenya, a very commendable achievement that not many have reached.

Wealth Dynamics For Your Business And Team Have you ever been an all rounder trying to achieve exceptional results within your business or even in your life? All rounders tend to believe that in order for things to get better, once they make some shifts to get themselves on a more positive track, they end up believing in living a life from a place of fear instead of expecting greatness to be part of our lives. At Aasan, we are passionate about working with both individuals and businesses, to really help set yourselves up to achieve real and long lasting success, fulfilment and harness true potential of teams by using the powerful Wealth Dynamics assessment tools for both individuals and teams to create business and team development solutions for you – with a massive difference! The principle behind Wealth Dynamics is that individuals, teams and businesses are at their best when they are in flow. Put simply, flow is your path of least resistance. When you are in a team that is in flow, productivity increases, results and performance improves dramatically; trust and communication accelerates; you have more fun and feel more connected to the organisation.
Let's take a brief look at the eight wealth profiles: The Creator
The Deal Maker
The Creators can't help creating! They are good at creating profitable ideas and businesses, but not so good with the day to day running of a business. Successful creators will delegate everything, except the creative process.
A deal maker relies on relationships, connections and being able to react intuitively when the best opportunities present themselves.
The Mechanic Mechanics are perfectionists who like to finish things, rather than create them. They want to make everything better - fine tune them. The Star It is easy to spot a star. Obviously, you have film, music and sports stars, but high profile CEOs can also be thought of stars. They rely on the strength of their personality and are aware of the pressure of always having to deliver. The Supporter Supporters are great networkers with loads of energy and enthusiasm. Their greatest wealth can be achieved when they join forces with a Star, Creator, Deal Maker, or Mechanic.
The Trader A trader is someone who naturally hunts out bargains, naturally loves haggling and gets immense satisfaction from a great deal. They are equally as good at finding high price buyers. The Accumulator Incremental growth is the key to this wealth dynamics profile. They are patient and disciplined and will stick fast to a successful system. The Lord The Lord likes to control everything. You can find a lord where there are fixed assets generating cash. They don't want attention like the stars and like to create wealth quietly.
For more information on the Wealth Dynamics, hop over to our Facebook Page and win yourself a free assessment. Simply tag us with your name and town, and tell us how the assessment will help you.

Kenya is generally a safe and friendly country, but as
tips
with any destination, you need to be aware of your surroundings and cautious not to find yourself in an unpleasant or potentially vulnerable situation.
Here are a few basic tips to consider during your stay! Safety & Security: Be vigilant when in public places and even more so when venturing out at night. In case of robbery, report the incident at the nearest police station. Kenya has a Tourist Safety and Communication Center that is always on call. They offer a 24hr tourist helpline +254 (0)20-600 4767 where you can seek assistance if needed
Water: Avoid drinking tap water. It is safer to drink mineral or bottled water
Exchanging money: Make sure that you exchange currency with a reputable hotel, bank, or foreign exchange bureau
Valuables: Be mindful of your valuables, try not to show high-value items in public or busy areas. Do not leave these items unattended in public places such as bars and restaurants
Driving: Always carry your original driving license and either your original passport or a certified copy of your passport
Photographs: It is natural when on holiday to take as many pictures as possible, but before you begin to take pictures of people, ask for their permission. In some cases, you may be required to offer a tip for those pictures
Transport services: When using a Tuk-Tuk, Boda-boda or Taxi ask for the price before embarking on the trip so as to avoid any surprises when you reach your destination
Animals: Never approach a wild animal, even if they appear harmless
Drugs: Be wary of people trying to sell you drugs. Although the coast of Kenya is very relaxed, drugs are illegal in Kenya, and any purchase, use, or possession of drugs could land you in prison
