Joely Richardson Instagram – 2 girls, Big dreams. Me and my sister Tasha visiting our Pa who was working in Africa when we were about 22/23years old. We ‘d just been up in that balloon. Tash achieved most of her dreams, but life broadens out in unexpected ways. Karen Blixen wrote ‘they say that the earth was made round so you couldn’t see too far ahead’. I found this black and white photo in my grandparents papers recently, they must have known K.B. who wrote the book ‘Out of Africa’- “if I had a dream of Africa, did Africa have a dream about me”. She famously fought for the land to be returned to the Kikuyu’s -its rightful owners. Tash went to Karen’s house many years later with her boys and sent me this postcard. I also returned a few times with @savethechildren and for safe drinking water. So, perhaps dreams are mutual x #africa #dreams #balloons | Posted on 19/May/2024 13:58:22
