…and here I am in my room in downtown Embu, thinking I am far away from the rest of the world out there. Lakini:
- there’s electricity (ok, most of the time)
- there’s internet via notebook & gprs
- there’s water (cold showers, yeah!)
- there’s a comfy bed all for myself (most ppl in Kenya don’t have)
- there are fresh fruits & vegetaboools available at the duka downstairs
- there’s free music via the nightclub next door
- there’s interesting work to do
- …and there are visitors from all over the world on my blog who pop in daily to have a short glimpse into my world and the things I would like to share with you, my visitors. Thx!
@Steve: yes, I will try to blog more on/from Embu in the coming weeks. Will be in Nbo over the weekend though & try to obtain some informations on “jua kali-DIY-projects” which are still brewing somewhere deep down in my head…
Now that is a wonderful glass half-full attitude that I ought to cultivate.
I hope you have a wonderful time and learn some Embu while you are at it, and oh I am expecting even more pitures of Embu-land
And we are also truly blessed to have you as our ‘friend in Kenya’. Thank you.
Hey, while in NBO, if you have time, try to get a real steak dinner…steak dinner…steak dinner…steak dinner…
Thank you! Thank you!
LOL at the ‘art of public speaking’in the post sasa?
No visitors from Suderburg? ;o)
Hey, remember to keep taking pictures of African ingenuity at work in Africa. I need more good stories for AfriGadget! :)
That’s the spirit! esp the free music part :)
kikuyumoja……keep doing ya thing,
JKE
Keep up the great blogging: we are loving it so far.
I checked out the soil maps and even saw a couple of places on the Chuka map where I have not been for more than 15 years. Thanks for the link.
By the way, you should start an iMatatu-POD series of posts. The ipods that you have captured so far have been pretty cool.

by the way, who is visting you from Tibet (there seems to be one hit from out there on the google map)?
– Steve
Everyone, thx!!
Tibet…I think it’s a wrong IP identification. Like my varsity @ home alwys becomes interpreted as “Nepal” – and there I was, wondering about the many visitors from Nepal. Sooo….Burns, Tibet/Nepal = Uni LG.
Steve, glad u liked the Chuka maps!
Hash!! Thx for retagging my Afrigadget pics on flickr.
E-Nyce…I had a real steak! YEAH! But at a private bbq…
Regarding Uni LG perhaps the IP identification works properly. I assume it is interpeted as Hamburg. Anyway, I am impressed of so many visiors around the world and your dynamic created density map, another type of webmapping application. ;o)
