Reflections from Kenya: Part II – Harambee
when I first began writing about my time in Kenya, Hakuna Matata felt like the perfect phrase to capture those early days - the warmth, the calm, the easy laughter that lightened even the most hurried moments. But as the months unfolded, I discovered another layer of Kenya’s soul. Harambee - “all pull together” - is more than a motto; it’s a lived philosophy, a quiet current of generosity that runs through everyday life.
Over the past three months, I’ve felt this spirit in the smallest interactions - from Uber drivers and delivery riders to security guards, salon girls, and supermarket cashiers. One driver insisted on helping me carry my bags into a new Airbnb, even though the ride cost less than 3 USD. A girl who did my pedicure offered to bring me home-cooked food. The cleaner who visits each week offered to cook too - and has since become a friend.
