Its my second time visiting this lovely contry in one year. Im traveling donw here with Rosenborg and Sør-Trøndelag Red Cross to document the development of Rosenborg Hous that has been build at the Karen Langata Branch here in Nairobi.
Im also going to do a project involving HIV/AIDS positive people.
Arrived at the hotel just a few hours ago. Its been a long day that started 0430 am this morning. But after x numbers of hours in an airplain its nice to feel the warm weather again after a cold winter in Trondheim.
Just a few minutes later I could see the first sign of what Nairobi can be like if your not carefull. A person lying “dead” in the middle of the road on myway to the hotel. I say “dead” beacause it could well have been an ambush atemt if someone stops to help. This is a well known method around here.
Cant wait for tomorrow. It will be a challenging day, but that is what Im here for =) Also looking forward to meet the nice people at Kanren Langata Branch from last year.

Kenya -visiting Kibera
Kibera is the largest slum in Nairobi and one of the largests in Africa. With over 1 million people living there. Every room house/room has an average of 10 square meeters, and there can be up to 10 people living in one room.
I went there today with James (Kenya Red Cross) and a minister to interview two girls who is HIV positive.
This is a place -i think everyone who has the chance should visit, just to get a little perspective of life. There are children going to the “toilet” in the middle of the “road” while greeting us with a smile and a -how are you?
