We've had an eventful ride to this point. All travels went fine, and we arrived in Nairobi as scheduled. We spent a day traveling from Nairobi to Nyeri, including a stop at a Giraffe Orphanage and Nairobi National Park. Overall the day went well, but we were happy to arrive in Nyeri and get some sleep.
 
Today was our first day at CYEC in Nyeri, and we were excited to have the opportunity to get to work. In the morning, we met a man named Andrew, a jack-of-all-trades entrepreneur who works with the center. He was very excited to work with our team on the WishVast venture. In the afternoon, our team ventured out with part of the Mashavu group to better assess the community around the CYEC. We were really grounded by the experience of seeing the impoverished community, but now have a much better understanding of the project context. Excited for more experiences to come…
 
(I hope to be able to provide more detailed accounts in the coming days as time permits. Clearly this short blurb doesn't tell the whole story!)
