Freedom!

So, after much thought and consideration, I decided that my days of depending on matatus (the public transport here that is usually packed with 30+ people) and my subsequent nausea during travel are over.
A couple of weeks ago, while I was in Nairobi, I met with my friends' car guy (apparently everyone has one here) and he showed me a couple of cars. By the end of the day, I was a car owner and he delivered it to me the next day.



I am now the proud owner of a Mitsubishi Pajero iO. I never in a million years thought I would drive an SUV. Then again, I've never lived someplace where 4WD is required and the roads are often 3-4 inches of mud. So far it's been great and I even survived the 6 hour drive from Nairobi! Thank you to all of my supporters that made this vehicle possible.
