What the creator captured
Davud Akhundzada was fascinated by the unique transit experience of landing at a tiny airport and immediately boarding a boat to reach the car-free 'Donkey Island.' He was particularly impressed by the narrow streets of Lamu and the fact that donkeys serve as the primary mode of transport for both people and construction materials. He described the island as a 'small paradise' and was warmly welcomed by the local Muslim and Christian community.
