Day 1 in Kilifi County: Following Portuguese footsteps in Malindi
Being one of the few people to show my face at the office during the summer, I decided to take advantage of our home office policy and left cold Nairobi for the coastal city of Malindi. I left on Thursday morning: the plan was to spend a day and a half teleworking in Malindi, visit the ruins of Gedi on Friday afternoon, and then join some of my colleagues for a weekend in Kilifi. After my unpleasantly warm experience in Mombasa, I expected to be greeted by cloudless skies and a wall of hot, humid air, so I was surprised by the strong winds that accompanied our descent and the drizzle whose end we caught while alighting.
