Everyday life in Kenya

I realized that I have gotten so used to being in Africa that I often forgethow amazing and interesting even everyday life can be. In an attempt to be more appreciative, here are a bunch of photos of my everyday life in Kenya!

Around town and at the One Acre Fund offices...

Typical transportation in Kenya...15 mattresses on one bike!



Bungoma on a Tuesday:





Hard at work at the One Acre Fund office:



Manu, our housekeeper's son, playing with the Play-do that my sister sent:



One Acre Fund Farmers:















"Light Mothers"--some of the women that work as community health volunteers in the child health program:

Some other travel and random pictures...

On a hike near our house:



It's like living right in the middle of the Discovery channel...





My first overland border crossing! The border between Uganda and Kenya...



Breakdown on the side of the road! It took these guys 10 minutes to fix the problem and we paid them $12. At home it would have taken AAA an hour to even show up!



Hiking in the Kakamega rainforest:



The Nile!
