British Formula One star Lewis Hamilton is enjoying Kenya and all its magical glory.
In a recent social media post, Lewis is seen hanging out with an orphaned giraffe and elephant at the Reteti Elephant Sanctuary is a Samburu community owned and run wildlife sanctuary in Northern Kenya.
Posting about his experience in Samburu, “Thank you to the wonderful people at the Reteti Animal Sanctuary for not only hosting us, but more importantly, dedicating their time to rescue, research and conservation. They’re the first indigenous, community-owned and run sanctuary in Africa and the work they do for these animals should be an inspiration to us all.”
He added, “They take in orphaned animals who likely wouldn’t make it on their own and release them back into the wild when they’re strong enough. This was a truly centering experience, one that reinforces that we all share this planet. We’re not above animals, we’re with them. More often, we’re guests in their homes. Every day in the motherland is more beautiful than the last. Much love, Kenya.”

The renowned Motorsport star has been on a African adventure visiting several countries in the motherland like Rwanda and Namibia.
