Great learning experience

Kristi_M, Jun 2024

The driver dropped us off at a home where we learned how to make a few Kenyan dishes. They gave us a few options to choose between which was great. All the food was flavorful and delicious. If we can remember how, we will try some again at home. Then a driver came and picked us up and dropped us back at our hotel again. The drivers and women teaching us were all great at answering questions about Kenya and sharing about what life is like there.
