Kenya: Good morning from Nairobi Transit Hotel
I visited Kenya back in 2012 and this is a post from my old blog
I arrived in Nairobi in the middle of the night after a nice flight via Bahrain with Gulf Air. Nairobi’s reputation as one of Africa’s most dangerous cities combined with a fair share of dark sideways and alleys made the ride from the airport a rather peculiar experience.

Luckily, Nairobi seems a lot less scarier in daylight. The view from my room is not the most picturesque in the world, but otherwise the hotel seems ok, and most importantly; safe.
Since Safari’s shop (cell phones) in the airport was closed, when I arrived, I have to head out in Nairobi today to buy a data SIM card. I also have to buy a toothbrush since I somehow managed to forget to bring my bag with toiletries…
