This year I wanted to do something different for my birthday day so I decided to take my first solo trip. I was a little nervous as I've always traveled with a partner but the experience was great. It was raining every single day but I tried to make the best of it. I skipped Mambrui sand dunes because I figured it wouldn't be as aesthetic or fun with the sticky sand 😄 Saving it for another trip later this year.
Most kenyan men are into monochrome looks in their wardrobes and their houses.
I enjoy having an abundance of colour and light in my house, it makes life feel warmer even on days that really suck.
The best part is that I get to use use my spare room to host solo travellers and it's been such an interesting experience. I couldn't afford to travel the world, so the world came to me.
I've hosted an irish scientist who works on consciousness, a German civil servant who works with immigrants, a Swedish athlete who's setting up an athleisure camp in ngong, a crypto millionaire lady, a Sudanese lady who approves grants for NGO causes, an Indian tech bro with his start -up, a Pakistani interpol officer, an Italian with a vineyard and olive oil factory. A Philipino who just travels the world with a backpack.
It has been super interesting having so many different conversations with different personalities under my roof. Sometimes I make a meal and we share food together and we'll spend hours in conversation over a cup of coffee.
I love living in Diani and hosting all sorts of people in my colourful and vibrant house.
It has probably been the second most fulfilling experience in my life and has made me realise that my purpose in life is to provide service and experiences to others.
Not a very flashy but it makes me feel whole.
Introverts o'clock 🤭
And yes, I know... I will unfat!
