A big (virtual) hug to Lisa Poggiali
I found out about the Kenya trip not too long ago - maybe about 10 days before I was supposed to take off. The emotions quickly shifted from being super excited to being super nervous. I knew nothing about this place, and didn't know a single person who lived here. And then I met Lisa Poggiali, an anthropology PhD student at Stanford.
In one hour at the CoHo, she was able to make the right connections, send the right emails and guide me to the best things in Nairobi. Thanks to her, I am living at the British Institute guest house, which is by far the best housing I could've gotten here. Thanks to her, I don't starve and eat at the right restaurants. and thanks to her, I've met some amazing people - like Hassan.
A big hug to you, Lisa - thought you might enjoy these sights: Kenyan traffic, Lunch at Trattoria and internet problems!
