Kenya is a bucket-list place
I found the Kenyan people to be an absolute delight. During our three years there, our twins were born, so Kenya will always have a special place in my heart. I spent most of my time getting to know the Kikuyu, Luo and Luya people. They are hard working, careful, productive, knowledgeable, and highly competent just to name of few of their wonderful qualities. I was struck by their singular reserve and self-respect. They are careful in making judgements about people and in decision-making. They are cautious in making friends. If you're there any length of time, take a stab at learning Swahili, the national language. It's a lot of fun, relatively easy, and the people will be excited to help you learn and engage with their diverse cultures and traditions.
The nation has much to be proud of
- World Class tourism industry with top level wildlife game parks and tourist packages.
- World class mobile phone technology, much better than the United States
- World class internet -- faster and cheaper than my home country
Tourist-wise, these are worth checking out
- The Samburu national game park (Mt Kenya)
- The Masai Mara conservatory park management system
- The Mombasa beach hotels
And the weather in Nairobi is just about perfect!
