Day 47 - 49
In the past few days a lot of things have happened, and it seems everyday I learn something new about living here in Kenya. A lot of learning is actually a result in realizing I have been taken advantage of in regards to prices, or just doing things a lot harder than I have to.
For example! I have found that buying vegetables, milk, and things like that are a lot cheaper in the local town where my taxi driver is from.
As far as prices, I am slowly finding cheaper places to buy things.
Tuesday we dropped Zach off at the airport in Nairobi and it went very well. I’m sure Zach got home safely, and it’s more quiet now that he’s not here. For a few minutes driving home, it even felt that I had forgot something when Zach left for the airport. That weird feeling you get when you go on vacation and you think you left something back at the house. After about 10 minutes, I was feeling myself again, and was in the car with Cesar, and Carlos. You’re probably thinking… aren’t you in Africa Andrew? Aren’t these people supposed to have African names? Yes.. I ask myself the same question all the time.
We met a VERY interesting person in Nairobi. His name is Stephen Digges, and is a very well known photographer / videographer. He makes documentaries all over the world, and I think I’ll try to spend some time with him in early August. He has some CRAZY stories, that I wouldn’t feel comfortable writing on my blog, but let’s just say, he has traveled all over the world, documenting, and experiencing stuff that not many people experience.
I have two more days here in Nyeri, and then its vacation time! The home stretch is here.
