Kenya 6-17.4

Travelling in East-Africa can be affordable if you do it the local way – by bus. Compared to flying which is around 150 dollars, I paid about 25€ . I took a night bus from Kampala to Nairobi. I must admit that I felt a bit suspicious about travelling by my self during the night, but the ride was great and crazy. I had the front row seat and was able to experience the driving culture from the driver’s perspective. The way different vehicles communicate with each other by winking head lights and blinkers. What a light show. And a lot of exciting moments (and at moments horrifying moments) While the bus was bypassing cars and lorries. After 12 hours I arrived in Nairobi.
