    Kelis has been giving us the travel content we didn’t know we needed over the past year documenting her journeys through Africa. The Milkshake artist has explored destinations like Tanzania, Kenya, Zanzibar and Rwanda, immersing herself in local communities and farming. 

    The 45-year-old artist’s caption continued, “I’ve been traveling with my family and we have been so grateful to be able to see all the beauty this continent has to offer. From its people to the land it has been nothing short of amazing. And I wanted to share it with all of you and your families. I truly love us, so from my heart to you! Please welcome into your heart SEVEN WONDERS OF AFRICA AND ABLE SABBATH BROWN. ❤️ #book #kids #read #childrensbook #africa #eastafrica #learn”
