Hello from Kenya! It’s about midnight over here on the coast, and I thought I’d throw up a quick post before I went to bed.
Things are going well so far. We mainly did orientation type things today, so that means talking about health issues, syllabus review, work outlines, independent study topics, and itinerary discussions. We will be in Mombasa for the next few days, then we’ll leave the coast for our rural home-stay in south-central Kenya. Apparently we’ll be building a library there, which is awesome.
Also, I picked up a cell phone (see above), which I thought was the coolest thing ever. It’s likely I’ll be doing my independent study on the Kenyan cell phone market (which is booming right now), so plan on hearing more about that in the future.
So anyway, bed time now. I’ll try and post some photos of the city tomorrow - kwa heri!
