Safety and Security by Patkabura10

I'm an American retiring with a Kenyan wife to Nanyuki area. I have quite a bit of experience in Kenya, but I was wondering what °µÍø½ûÇøs might say about the security of that area. My wife and I are hoping for a quiet life just out side of Nanyuki. ...

@Chip Kingsbury Hello Mr Kingsbury, it looks as if we are neighbors. I would have many questions about my near future in the area. Would it be OK if I inquire with further questions? My wife Joyce will be in Nanyuki in November to view our property. ... Read More

Kenyan attitudes towards foreigners by hkdman

Hi! I am going to go to Kenya (Nairobi and Mombasa) later in September. The reason I picked Kenya for my first African country to visit is based on the widespread use of the English language. I have also heard that Kenyans are generally friendly ...

@hkdman As an American I would advise you that Kenyans are very friendly. I'm not Asian but I would be surprised if you encountered any widespread hostility. Personally, I don't think your appearance will affect your enjoyment of the people or ... Read More

Retiring in Kenya by Christopher4710

Mostly a question of future planning... Does anyone have any experience with or information about retiring in Kenya for a US citizen? This is something I want to look into though it would be a ways off. Are there specific laws governing this - ...

Patkabura10

Hello, yes and thank you for your insight. I think the way to go is a gated community as I would rather not lose any sleep and or feel the pangs of anxiety from day to day. I am sick of the urban life so I hope there are plenty of options ... Read More

Hiking club by Patkabura10

I will be moving to Nairobi later this year and was hoping to join a hiking club, can anyone recommend a club of this type? I am also a very social person looking to make friends.

Patkabura10

Also, so sorry to hear that you are leaving Kenya. I have never been to South Africa but I hope all go's well for you there. I think it will be very important for my mental health to find some "Western" companions for those times I ... Read More

Kenya certainly presents many challenges. I thank you for your council and frank incite. Your council certainly reminds one that youthful romantic notions of Africa should be kept in their proper sphere. I have two stepsons in Nairobi and we wish ... Read More

This may not be something you know about but I am wondering if you would know if the chemist in Kenya carries Omeprazole, or Prilosec for Acid reflux syndrome? on previous stays in Kenya I had my own supply, but as I will be a permanent resident I ... Read More
