Kisumu




I have two lives in Kenya; one in the village Sigowet, another in Kisumu. I like them both, but they are very different. In kisumu we can wear singlet not only at home but out in the street, we can sun-bath, swim, enjoy a beer or two, be out after dark, dissapear in the crowd, dance with other people, eat in restaurants, access internet and have coffee in the cafes. In Sigowet we wear singlet only at home, dance only at home and have tea and soda in the cafes. We stay at home after sunset and get a lot of attention out in the street. A mix of the two lives is a good deal!
On the pictures we are out dancing with three sisters we met at the pub Mon Ami, we have lunch with my colleague Martina and her sister Winny and Mari talks to our Danish friend Janek.

Hi Ingeborg,
Have just scrolled thro your blogs and find it very interesting what you are doing. Well done. My name is Odd and I live in Mbita on the shore of Lake Victoria. Your parents visiting you in May have just booked at our Safari Village. Hopefully I will meet you too. All the best. By matatu from Sigowet via Kapsoit - Sondu - Oyougis - Homa Bay - Mbita will probably take you 3-4 hours but it will be worth while when you eventually arrive. KARIBU
