Mambo!!! Habari yako
It's been a while since I last wrote something here.
So, on this blog, I just wanted to share some places where I enjoyed and of course, experienced while I was an ex-pat in Kenya.
I lived in Lavington, Nairobi but it did not stop me to discover some places outside the city.
So without much ado, here are the places you can visit if you're into traveling:
1. Karura, Forest
This is the first place I visited here in Nairobi, after a week of staying here, I took an uber to reach there via Boda Boda.
I paid only KES 100 to enter and walked the forest for nearly 3 hours. It is very quiet so you can have your ''Me Time''. You can either stroll or visit the waterfalls and the caves. Walking surrounded by trees is just one thing that a lot of people fail to appreciate. I loved and enjoyed walking there even at most times, I walked alone.
2. Ngong Hills, Kajiado
This beautiful, scenic view is one of a kind, and if you are reading right now. Please come and try this exhilarating hike experience. Better bring water and food if you go for a hike in this place, there are a number of mountains that you will need to conquer and for sure you will not regret visiting this place. I hiked here two times and I will surely do it again if I get the chance.
If you are a resident you will only have to pay KES 232.
3. Olooloa Trail, Karen
My new friend took me here for a walk on a Sunday afternoon and I couldn't be happier to spend my weekend outside the house and of course, breathe fresh air and see another discovery.
4. Diani, Mombasa
The sunny beach is giving me a refreshing vibe.
It is always relaxing to be walking barefoot on the shore while being sun-kissed.
5. The Sands, Chale Island, Mombasa
This island is one of my favorites in Kenya. I flew from Nairobi to Ukunda Airport from the cold Nairobi to the humid Mombasa. Definitely, I consider this as a getaway place. The food here is delicious and will cater to all your cravings. The meals they served were all fresh and very tasty. Your stay is worth paying for.
If you are a diver, you may be sure to contact them earlier and book in advance to reserve a diver to guide you. While my friends are enjoying their dive, I and Saisai went for a boat ride this time we got the opportunity to see the dolphins and it was indeed a wonderful day.
6. Bomas of Kenya (Homestead), Langata Kenya
I am not a fan of the cultural shows but this experience gagged me.
The dancers are very entertaining, they showed skills, passion, and love for their work.
The story that they portrayed is well executed.
We paid KES 500.00 to enter and enjoy the exhibition.
7. Carnelly's Camp Naivasha, Nakuru
My first camping experience!
Wash up your blankets and prepare yourself for the cold weather. This time I will take you to Nakuru county. The cold weather is such a good experience while you spend talking to your lovely friends.In the evening, we did a flaming bonfire that warms you up before you go to your respective tents.
Make sure to prepare yourself from drizzles as it just rains all of a sudden. Had spent 3 days at the camp and we enjoyed it a lot.
You can go biking, fishing, and boating at the lake called Naivasha.
8. Hell'S Gate National Park & Geothermal Spa (Sulfur Swimming pool), Olkaria
9. Safari Park Hotel
10. Rainbow Resort, Ruiru
11. Kedong, Mai Mahiu
12. The Alchemist bar
13. The Giraffe Center, Karen
14. Nairobi Safari Walk
15. Safari Park Hotel
16. Two Rivers Mall
17. Sarit Center
18. Westgate Mall
19. Aga khan sports club
20. Sikh Union Club
I lived in Nairobi, Kenya for 6 months and I really enjoyed those adventures i did.
Thank you and I hope you find any of these places interesting.
