First - I'm not familiar with such blogs? or whatever you call them so I don't know if I'm writing this in the right place - but I'll go ahead anyway...
I've volunteered with a medical group providing medical services in Masai villages in the Amboseli region and now have a few personal friends in Kenya.
I'm retirement age but cannot afford to retire in Canada so am planning on moving to Kenya.
I believe I can live on my government pensions (Canada & US) in Kenya but have read that $24,000 p.a. is the minimum required for a resident visa. Is that true? I won't have that much.
I have my own small tour business which I can continue for added income.
I'm also looking at going into business with a Kenyan friend, primarily to provide items that would ease the water shortage for families - and other ideas.
I do not want to live in Nairobi! I'm not a city gal. I have friends in the countryside near Thika. Is there an ex-pat community in Thika?
Does anyone know anything about alternative medical services in that area e.g. chiropractors, naturopaths/homeopaths ?
Any advice/suggestions welcome.
