<p>As the curtain closed on the first groups summit success last week, we quickly find ourselves back at the Machambe gate, where the heartbeats of anticipation resonate in the air. Damian's keen eye observes the bustling preparations of the dedicated porters, guides, and cooks, setting the stage for a thrilling return to this majestic peak.</p><br><p>Meet the diverse ensemble of adventurers who will accompany Damian on this exhilarating quest. While some familiar faces like Chidi, Walter, and Fred rejoin the expedition, new companions, including the transformed guide-turned-cook, Edison, add fresh dynamics to the group. Damian introduces us to a vibrant mix of personalities, hailing from Dublin, Galway, Waterford, Clare, and beyond, each carrying their own unique stories.</p><br><p>Yet, Kilimanjaro is more than just a geographical destination; it's a sensory feast. Damian eloquently describes the rainforest's scent, a thick, earthy embrace that awakens memories of morning walks with his beloved daughter, Elodie. A poignant moment is shared as he sends a heartfelt message of love across the airwaves to her.</p><br><p><br></p><p>baLORE media created this podcast</p><p>Show Producer and Editor: Niall Killeney Taylor</p><br><p><br></p><p>Don't miss out on the exciting adventures of Deep Roots Season 4!
