These islands meet you exactly where you are, so to narrow down any Zanzibar agenda .......Okay, so this much i know: life is short, the list of things to see and do is long, so better to get on our horses now and experience life, right? There's no sense in waiting for timing to be perfect or for retirement. The time to live is now. #summervacation#beachvacation#hotelstay
