Invitations, Eldoret, Kenya

James who is a good friend of my father and a pastor for a big church here in Eldoret showed me around a bit today in the afternoon. With his new car we visited his old house in the slum, the huge church he had built and thereafter we rounded up for a dinner in his nice new house. He made sure I got chicken as that is what he was always served in my parents home when he visited Sweden. Chicken was served with Ugali and cabbage.

Yesterday I was invited to my colleague Julius place where Chicken and rice was on the menu. He had a nice tradition of eating from the same plate with his girlfriend. Always nice to visit peoples homes as you get a better connection with the life and culture of a place.

Working the night shift, Nairobi

Met up with my sister Debbie at her horse jumping competition this afternoon and borrowed her car to take my Finnish Colleague Ville to Nairobi national park. At the moment Ville (and I) are working with students from Chepkoilel University on developing an educational forestry game for android tablets.
