Cyber Cafes in Kenya
Hey, it’s interesting… while most of Africa may be without personal computers, I’m amazed to learn how technologically saavy and culturally hip Africans are! They’re teaching me the basics of text messaging, and know how to connect me to their DSL connections. Navigating the financial system here has been tough, but we’re just now getting the hang of it. From now on you can expect regular updates from our trip at this blog. Get ready, we’ve got some great photos and some great stories to tell!
One thing I’ll say before signing off tonight is this…
When I came here, I had so many American friends warning me about my trip to Africa. All we see on the news is violence, AIDS, extreme poverty, etc. Yet, what I’ve seen here is people joyously living peacefully and simply in one of the most beautiful places on earth. So many of them walk miles just to make survival possible… they do it carrying loads on their backs or their bikes… and they seem to smile the whole way. I’m really starting to feel jealous of the simple life that I see here… in one of the most beautiful places on earth.
More later…
Everything here is made possible by our Patrons!
