During my three week visit to Africa, the first thing that surprised me about Nairobi was that unlike my home city Karachi you can easily cross the road. Many times, car drivers would stop for you to pass by easily, even in the town. Westlands, where we stayed, was a relatively posh area but when I commuted into the town I could see poverty and more so, courtesy in the craftswomen and sellers. A city that is developing at an ever-increasing pace still had hills, trees, tormented bodies and yet strong souls.
