kenyan culture – nilichoandika

I love festivals!

This year, the National Cultural Celebrations are taking place in my county, Kisumu. So, there was no way I was going to miss out on this and it was quite an experience that I had to capture so many moments until my battery died.

The events dates are: 19th-23rd September 2018 at the Jomo Kenyatta Sports Ground, Kisumu.

Here are the highlights of my short visit:

100_8076 — Prof. Wangari Maathai is one of my role models on resilience, and this artwork just blew me away.

100_8098 — Have you ever wanted to dip your hands into a pot? I’m Luo and these are my native dishes, eish…Obambo.

100_8100 — I met Richard. He designed and created this massive fish and I had to take a photo of him beside it.

100_8109 — Maasai dance troupe waiting to perform.

In the end, I bought two pairs of earrings and a bangle that drew my attention. I love glass earrings:-)
