Ride or Drive Life. A Lifestyle Traveling

Traveling is about more than just getting from point A to point B. It's a way of life, of being more appreciative of the world and everything in it, of expanding your comfort zone and experiencing new things. 


We realized early on in our travels that material possessions were not what we were after. We were after experiences!😃 On motorcycles some days, and in motor vehicles on other days.

On this blog, we share with you how you can travel in luxury or with limited means, enjoy smaller and slower modes of transportation or don't even have to travel far and wide - but still find joy and contentment in daily life.

Our experiences are our own and we write them as they happen without any agenda other than sharing our passion for life with you through these articles and videos and we're excited to begin this journey with you. 

Welcome to Ride or Drive Life!

Caught Some Trout on Our Safari and Fishing Trip up the Aberdare Ranges Mountain

Image
Hear us out—we know ours is called Ride or Drive Life, but this time, we decided to let someone else take the wheel. It was a "sit-and-be-driven" adventure from our cozy home, to the picturesque Aberdare Cottages and Fishing Lodge in Murang’a for a two-night getaway. This trip took us on a journey of discovery—a splendid blend of fly fishing, a game drive, birdwatching, picnic by the river, and soaking in nature's serenity. From catching trout to spotting wildlife in the heart of the Aberdare National Park, it was a trip that refreshed our souls and strengthened our bond as a couple. Setting Off to Aberdare Cottages and Fishing Lodge The drive to Murang’a was smooth and scenic, with lush greenery and rolling hills that made us feel like we were leaving the chaos of city life far behind. As we approached Aberdare Cottages and Fishing Lodge, we were greeted by the familiar charm of the lodge’s rustic architecture nestled against the backdrop of the Aberdare Ranges. The coo...

Ideal Premium Safari Game Drives for Adventures Around Kenya — Luxury Meets the Wild

Image
Let’s be honest— there’s something sacred about waking up to the sound of birdsong echoing through the bush, sipping a warm cup of Kenyan tea while watching the morning sun paint golden shades across the savannah. But when you pair that wild beauty with luxury touches like heated outdoor showers, private guides, and gourmet bush dining it becomes something unforgettable. If you’re a couple (or solo explorer) craving wild beauty without compromising comfort, let’s take this virtual ride together. April is a month that, for us, will forever carry a heartbreaking memory of the difficult, emotional journey to Kitale last year to lay a dear family member to rest. The world felt muted, and the idea of adventure was distant. Life, in its beautiful and sometimes brutal cycle, often throws curveballs that pull us away from our usual routines and dreams. But even as we remember and reflect on the past number of months, the spirit of our beautiful country of Kenya with its vast and untamed b...

A Quick Day Trip to Tigoni – Driving to Gathoni Farm, Sensory Garden Kenya, Naishola Gardens, and a Lakeside Picnic at Naiposha Gardens

Image
After weeks of city chaos, work deadlines, and long to-do lists that somehow never end, we finally carved out a quiet moment for ourselves. And where did we escape to? Tigoni. Just a short drive from Nairobi, but a world away from its noise and busyness. There’s something deeply therapeutic about getting out of the city on a weekday. We haven’t joined all the group trips to most of these hidden green gems just yet—but let’s call this blog a soft launch of our future nature escapades. Whether you're looking for a peaceful day trip, a couple’s picnic spot, or a quiet sensory healing experience , the Tigoni-Limuru area is quickly becoming the ultimate nature-lover’s secret. The landscape starts to shift almost immediately once you leave Nairobi’s concrete jungle. You trade grey smoke for green, exhaust fumes for unpolluted air, and the constant honking for birdsong and breeze. Even if you’ve done this route before, it never gets old. Our small 4WD handled the winding roads like a c...
