Our first book - MOJA
Every action creates a reaction, and we hope Nyayo Moja – our first ever book – receives the biggest to date. This book is deeper, rawer, and unashamedly true to itself.
This book tells stories of women in Africa across seven countries, paying tribute to the incredible women working in the conservation and African safari industry.
The personal, raw stories in Moja are testimony to womankind’s ability to transcend barriers and challenge convention to uplift Africa, fiercely protect her wildlife and rewrite an outdated narrative.
“This incredible coffee book shines a light on the inspirational African women who are pushing boundaries and breaking stereotypes every single day in their fields.
Women can be rangers. Women can be guides. Women can be wildlife vets & conservationists. Women can be wildlife photographers.”
What does Nyayo mean?
The word Nyayo in Swahili (the language most commonly spoken in East Africa), translates to footprints. To the average traveller, the majority of footprints probably go unnoticed, but to a safari guide, the faintest footprint on a dusty path is spotted immediately and analysed meticulously. Footprints are not only physical. Our emotional footprint is what we contribute psychologically and socially to one another. No matter how long you spend with your safari guide, their emotional footprint – often imbued with kindness, passion and courtesy – will undoubtedly leave its mark on your heart.
