This is not your typical tourist experience. And neither is it a service like a hotel, where you just get food brought to you. No. Be ready to immerse yourself in local culture and discover the secrets of Kenyan cuisine in ways you won’t find in any hotel. First, I won't buy the ingredients beforehand. Rather, we will go to the local grocery market together and pick them. Then, back at home, I won't keep you out of the kitchen as I cook. No. We will both roll up your sleeves and cook together multiple authentic Kenyan dishes. And I mean authentic dishes—nothing fancy, just honest, home-style food the way we eat it here. I’ll explain the history and significance of each dish, and you’ll learn how these meals are enjoyed during celebrations, family gatherings, and daily life in Kenya. Along the way, you’ll learn about everyday life, local customs, and the rhythms of Kenya living—all through food.

Hosted in Airi Handmade's Studio in Watamu, just minutes from Watamu Beach, this intimate session invites you into the living archive of African maker material histories. Rather than a surface-level cultural tour, you will engage directly with fibers, beads, baskets, and textiles while uncovering the design intelligence, ritual significance, and economic realities behind them. Ideal for culturally curious travelers, design lovers, slow travelers, and thoughtful minds seeking depth, context, and meaningful connection beyond mainstream interpretations of Africa. Why This Experience Is Different This is not a performance, a craft demonstration, or a souvenir workshop. It is a guided studio conversation rooted in research, lived maker relationships, and material literacy. It is intentionally intimate, reflective, and layered, created for those who value depth over spectacle.
