About
Occupation
I am Job seeker.
My expat journey
Nairobi, Nairobi Area, Kenya
My life in Kenya would be with my wife and kids, which I dearly miss. Both of our countries make it so difficult to be joined. And it is difficult for African people to adjust to cold and I love cold, so I want to live in Kenya.
If I have the opportunity to do good stuff, I would love to teach photography.
Currently I am a professional jobseeker, and would love to get a job in the areas of my hobbies, as fitness trainer, photographer.
I like the weather, the people are so patient.
Well, every country has it's good and bad sides, so let's not talk about it.

Thank you for that, and I really start to wonder now, how come, foreigners do know more than those who work in the office? As I said before, I had been in contact with plenty of people and none ever told me that. Read More
