in Kenya/ Trip Week 6

12/4 We arrived in Nairobi on Dec. 4. The first week we stayed at the home Irene Wairumi the Exec. Dir. of our volunteer organization VICDA. We mostly relaxed and got to know Nairobi,kenya.  Jordan made friends with her 15 year old brother david, who was and briefly visiting  her on his to his village home from his Boarding School.  Irene is a 35 year-old single women who is vey dedicated to helping the neediest of the needy. She runs an organization that helps build schools, simple homes, hospitals and provides volunteers to those organizations.

Nairobi, is a very big, developed and commercially city. It is very much more developed than any city in Uganda.  It's pace is just like that of a big city in the U.S.   From what I can tell,  It has all the benefits of  capitalistic development,  as well as all the drawbacks.
