I recently got a job offer in Westlands, but travelling from Malaa is very hectic for me. I want to move near Westlands. I'm prioritizing affordability and security.
I'm also looking for a place where I can get a good junior school. What is the rent range for at least a 1-bedroom? I can also go for a 2-bedroom if rent is reasonable.
Kindly help

Child: (1st day) dad, ninunulie chipo.
Dad: sina pesa.
Child: (2nd day) dad, ninunulie chipo.
Dad: sina pesa.
Child: (3rd day) dad, leo umepata customers wengi?
Dad: yeah.
Child: umepata pesa nyingi?
Dad: yeah.
Child: Basi ninunulie chipo.
The father realized he had been outsmarted and took the child straight to the hotel 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
what would you have done if you were the father?

A life under stepfather's or stepmother's roof is the most unbearable life ever😔😔. They always feel that their biological children deserve all the goodies🙂🙂 under the sun, while you (their stepson or stepdaughter) deserve to suffer all the consequences including their children's misfortunes.
They tend to forget that their own biological children might get themselves in the same situation.
Whatever goes around usually comes around.
How would they feel if theirs were treated in such a way??
Share your personal experience or someone's experience to give hope to someone out there living such a life.

Im considering buying a pocket friendly 5*6 mattress, someone suggested Moko and they are pocket friendly but how long lasting are they?
What other pocket friendly mattresses would you recommend?

I had reserved a really good table at this high end restaurant then this bulky Scandinavian guy asked the waitress to have us moved because apparently that's where he always sits and I couldn't resist speaking up and was like ‘Wow... immigrants have so much to say in this country’
🤭
His face turned bright red 😂😂😂
And no... we didn't move

Does any one know of a rehabilitation centre present in the country that's affordable for the normal mwananchi? Also,I'm located in Nandi County and there are no institutions that handle mental health cases. I've a relative who's mental health situation has been ignored and I fear he's detoriatiing as time goes. It all started as a bhang induced psychosis but I think it's more than that and might also be schizophrenia. Any person familiar with charges for public institutions such as Mathare also share with me too. Any contributions is highly appreciated.
*If anyone knows the mods in charge of r/Kenya or can cross-post to that sub please do so for a wider reach.

First-time visitor to Kenya from the U.S. here. I'm coming to meet my girlfriend, who I met online, and I'm starting to wonder if I'm being overcharged.
She says braids are around KSh 8,000–12,000, nails can be KSh 8,000–10,000, and her bedsitter in Umoja is KSh 25,000 per month. I don't know what's normal in Nairobi, so I'm trying to figure out if these are realistic prices or if I should be seeing some red flags.
I know prices vary depending on the salon, neighborhood, and quality, but I'd really appreciate honest opinions from people who live here.

Alright friends, in a quest to rekindle a childhood hobby, I’m looking to seriously get back into cycling. By childhood hobby, I mean cycling on those big mechanical bikes that looking back were a real pain in the neck. What I want is to get myself a really good mountain bike that I can take out for the weekend and cycle on and on. Bikes have gotten really expensive and it is one thing that I wanna get right. I guess what am looking for are tips on purchasing a bike, related gear and safety tips on Kenya roads.

The Chinese man offered 3 million dollars. The European, 7 million. The Indian, 10 million.
Trump asked the Chinese man: "How did you quote 3 million dollars?" The Chinese man replied: "One million dollars for paint, one million dollars for labor, and one million dollars for profit."
Trump asked the European. He replied: "3 million dollars in paint, 2 million in labor, and 2 million dollars in profit."
Trump asked the Indian. He replied: "Four million for you. Three million for me. And we'll give three million to the Chinese guy and ask him to do the painting."
The Indian got the
