My fiancé and I are in Nairobi for the next couple if weeks and we're looking for some fun/cute activities to do together on a budget.
We both like the outdoors and prefer stuff which isn't too rigidly structured, e.g. guided tours etc.
Would love to have your suggestions if you know of anything!
I could leave Twitter for good because now I can't search for anything in Kenya or in my region. Filtering search results with "Near You" only brings results with "near me". This means that they changed the functionality of the search feature.
I used the search feature to find opportunities like programs to sign up and jobs to apply but now I lost 90% of my purpose on Twitter. 10% is interacting with writers' and designers' tweets.
I really hope brain implant technology would be a win for the human race. Sometimes the things we suffer from would be solved by a delete button. Fear delete, social anxiety delete.. I have been struggling with suicidal thoughts the longest.
I tried to delete myself once, I was 7. Took a number of tablets but the next morning still here. Nobody knew Anyone else feeling like here. I wish I would die sooner, I don't want to kill myself
It's the end of the year and nowadays the end of year parties and raves don't do nothing at all for me. So, this end of year, am doing a psychedelic drug LSD or magic mushrooms. How many of you have ever tried this? I did it last year too, went hard on 300ug of LSD and did the thing usually not recommended, looked at the mirror.
I saw myself as a very hideous looking creature. It's like taking off all the filters you see yourself through. It's like staring at your naked true form.
This year am going for the same dose and my intention is to reflect on my growth so far and be thankful for the lessons learnt along the way.
Who else has ever done the same?
Ukinikataa iyo ni wewe umenikataa. Mi bado sjakukataa. Ama?
Healing is a daily process. It’s not about a place or event, but about going inward and realizing that others’ actions reflect their own journey, not yours. When you stop taking everything personally, you protect your peace and grow. Real healing is hard and exhausting, but it’s worth the journey. You know you've healed when you can observe without absorbing. You don't have to internalize the struggles of others, and you don't need willpower—just acceptance of the truth.

Hi everyone, I'm planning a trip and need some help finding a reliable 4x4 car rental service in Nairobi. I'll be heading to Mombasa and back, and potentially to Kampala, depending on the rates.
If you've had a good experience with a rental company or know where I can get a solid deal, I'd really appreciate your input. Bonus points if they’re flexible with cross-border travel and offer pickups in Nairobi.
Thanks in advance for your recommendations!
I'm currently working on my video editing skills and I've got a few clients lining up but I have no idea what the market rate is for this work I would like to earn well but I also don't want to scare away customers so what is the low end and high end price range??Any advice is accepted please and thank you.
I remember earlier this year when I shared a post on what is really ailing men; https://www.reddit.com/r/nairobi/comments/1f6apf9/what_are_men_today_really_lackingmadem_mnaonaje/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button here it is. Leo najua mmeona the stats that 92 percent of new earners above 100k are women. This justifies a lot of what was discussed in this post. Women have really become empowered out here and are working 10x harder no doubt. Big up to all them babes (minus the ones who got sugar zaddys n aint legit). Now it is true and all but my observation as a man is that out here especially nowadays wanaume ni kupigana vita. A woman is more likely even to link her female counterpart up with an opportunity than a man does to his male counterpart. Also females are better communicators and that is what is required in industry today unlike was hard skills years dominantly years back. Kuongea ukweli pia though kama mwanaume, men out here are going through it in various aspects of life especially here in Kenya.Lets also not forget many men out here nowadays are raised with the absence of an upright masculine figure to push them to achieve certain milestones in life and even meet certain expectations. It is sad but also a challenge to the future fathers and deadbeats reading this post. Women have given us a run for our money nayo si ati nini maguys. There is no sector of this economy that a woman isn't in a position of influence today in Kenya. I would like to hear how we could empower men more from the gassroots from both genders. Wale wa conventional ways of thinking please keep off
What do you people talk about during the talking stage, I met someone here last month and so far so. She's someone I'd love to grow old with hopefully. Problem is I'm an ambivert who leans mostly on the introverted side. As an introvert, I have the JOMO but with this person it's different.
Fuck that car and its crew ni wezi tu unaniambiaje niongeze pesa wtf umbwa sitawai panda hio gari tena
Before we end thw year what's your we listen but don't judge moment
TLDR lakini si refu vile.
So recently nimekuwa nikigoo through social media, and as a dude, I feel as if nikuwa conditioned kuangalia madem in a certain light. Through porn and slutty posts hapo x and gram, nimekuwa nikicheki madem not really as people but like far away objects and the ultimate goal was sex. Then recently, we got back together with an ex of mine na ndo nimeanza kurealize how much sijui the meddie. Like we literally just fuck, watch movies na wiki iendele but sijui this shawty beyond the surface level shit. Nafeel super sad at myself cos wow, nimekuwa fala bin fala walai. Now is when I'm starting to feel the impact social media has had in my brain.
From the time I got my first phone till now, this is when I realize I need to get away from the trends and whatever and focus on the human beings I have by my side, my friends, family, significant others and shit. I feel very disconnected from my humanity. I guess what I'm saying is nothing on social media is real and I actually don't know how reality works. I think moving forward I need to draw a huge line where my social media life actually meets with my real social life and keep the two very far away from each other and eventually drop the social media cos wtf. To anyone who has any idea also on how to sensitize yourself and detox your mind from this social media shit any input will be highly appreciated apart from the go out and actually socialize.
I don't want to play victim buana. I need a solution out of this shitole I dug whether consciously or subconsciously. The ultimate goal sasa nikumove as far away from all social media as possible. Niko excited even to talk to people and learn new things buana not from this phone. I honestly think the thing I've been missing is actual human interaction with my peers so that I actually gauge who I am past this mask I've been putting out.
The tricky thing about social media tho is that everyone behind that comment and screen might be real. I say might juu AI is becoming a huge thing sahii but most people are. So socially, its morally neutral. I won't dive into it but it definitely has had a say into my masculinity and my overall perception of society. All this time I've been thinking people are shallow but I never gave them an opportunity to know them past their social media personas. I've been such a fool. Fuck this shit buana.
Anyway I hope y'all are having a blessed day mahnn na huyu jammaa aende joo fuckkk.
Rock bottom isn’t the worst place to be—it’s finding comfort there that can hold you back. It’s tempting to settle into the stillness and accept it as your new normal. Over time, the discomfort fades, and the unfamiliar starts feeling safe. But true growth happens when we choose to rise again, even when it feels easier to stay. It’s okay to rest, but don’t lose sight of the journey upward.
Yeah...I know they are your bundle of joy yada yada. But nothing pisses me off than a stranger's unruly children. I like my kids, nephews and nieces because I have some control over how they behave. Also, I'm related to them so I have to love them unconditionally anyway.
Here's the problem - other people's kids. Kids are kids and you can't blame them for being kids. But those little monsters can be super annoying especially when you have zero control over what they do and it involves you directly. You will go to a restaurant, and some random kid from the next table takes your cutlery. What do you do now? His/her mother is right there acting as if nothing happened. Some will pull your beard in matatus, God forbid you live in an estate with many kids and they keep scratching your car, others will break your windows playing football etc. As an adult man, I would be very happy in a world where my paths never cross with other people's kids.
I know they are your bundles of joy, but not everyone likes your kids like you do. Some people like me view them as a nuisance. Because I know that I will hurt a lot of people's feelings here, especially women, you are free to downvote me to oblivion for speaking my mind. Keep your kids to yourselves.
Hey guys I'm looking to get a new phone soon and I'm seeking the advice and recommendations of any vendors on here. Budget is 60-70k. I'm open to ex UK/US devices but would much prefer a new one, any suggestions are much appreciated
Hey guys... hope mko fiti....... I was asking where I could find any Metal merch within Nairobi.... the band tshirts the spiked bracelets... anything metal
So, I just gave a coworker of mine access to my paypal and it didn't have money, I figured he needed to use it for his own stuff and since I trusted the guy, I just gave him access. Later on, I come to figure out that he has been scamming mfs online abroad. Now, these people have filed complaints and my paypal is reading in the negatives (-500 pounds)😭😭😭...I feel like choking the mf...😭😭yes alinikanja za macho after, but he has an iPhone na naitupia macho sana coz how tf am I supposed to refund these people their money. Na najua hatarudisha.
Wadau, what would you do if you ever found yourself in such a situation?
The last time I was this broke was time nikiwa high school, hapo 2012... After my dad admitted me to school, hakutaka kujua vile nitakua nafika shule....it was harsh but I don't blame him...

Nafika kahawa sijui ni sukari ama ni wendani.. these manes confuse me aki, I check the time naona ni 7.20, deep down nakuambia tu I wish ningetoka 6.00 Kwa hao... Nafika k.u na it's like I'm alone Kwa road....nateremka china square I look back naona siko solo...at least napata home.... Nafika hapo k.m najiambia nipande matt na hii 20 bob Niko nayo... Nakumbuka I didn't carry any food for lunch coz sikupika coz ata hio food yenyewe Sina 🤦🏼♀️ . At this point my legs are giving up, naanza kuomba tu God akam through.... Najikaza hadika clay works at around 8.00 nasema tu apa sasa nishachelewa.... Najikaza tu coz sa nitadu??. I reach my work place at 8:13am.... W for wueeehhh..... Walking is not for the weak.... Naulizwa mbona nimechelewa natumia accident niliona hapo clayworks to justify why i am late coz it caused a lot of traffic....it's a good thing boss haikukua amefika.... Sai nakunywa cocoa na ngumu zangu mbili nipate energy ya kurudi home..... This life, no balance....
Since I clearly didn't follow through with any resolutions I made, I have decided to finish the year strong. I want to enrol in a gym and go make those gains. I do know my way around some exercises but I have never stopped foot in a gym. I usually work out from home but I don't want to do that any more. I want to build commitment and discipline hence the enrollment.
My question is, should I get a personal trainer just for the month to help me understand the gym and it's equipment? I also think the PT will keep me accountable and help build that discipline. What are your thoughts? 💭 Help me out
