The sights and sounds of Nairobi can often be unique and quirky but they are ‘so Kenya’! Think about purchasing a new 3-seater sofa. How do you get it home? If your answer is ‘hire a delivery truck’, you probably haven’t been to Kenya because this is a sight we see often … to the delight, amusement – and trepidation – of all, including the new sofa owner!
