Description

Lamu is a true paradise. It couldn't be stressed enough, the little maze streets, the kindness of the people, the delicious fresh seafood & local Swahili cuisine... A small community of 25,000 people on the island just a 1.5-hour flight from Nairobi. Watch the ocean as you work, a traditionally built dhow sailing by, the donkeys wandering the streets, boats floating on their anchors, others busy ferrying passengers across the islands. Venture yourself into the magic labyrinth-style town, gaze at the uniquely wood-carved doors, slow down, life here is "pole pole" as they say in Swahili... (the laid-back life).

I was searching for a nomad community in Africa for some time and I was lucky enough to find AfricaNomads team in Kenya

I was searching for a nomad community in Africa for some time and I was lucky enough to find AfricaNomads team in Kenya. I left with no expectations and I had such an amazing experience. From the like minded people I met there, to all the activities carefully planned on a daily basis, I enjoyed each and every moment. It truly felt like home, carefree, while spending time in lovely company. Not to mention the delicious food, the warm culture and the African vibes. I didn't plan working while being there, as I was in transition between my jobs, but the rest of the group was working remote. You have all conditions and good wifi , so I definitely recommend it if you are a digital nomad or perhaps you just want to meet more people like yourself in a different environment:) Have fun, it is worth it!
