I spent about a week with Julius and his family, and I must say this was one of the most special experiences I have had during my WorkAway experiences in East Africa.

I was in Nyagwethe for one month and I really loved my experience there as time flew by so fast. The scenic motor ride to the village was absolutely beautiful. From then on, I played football almost every day with the local kids from the village as the kids had a long school break and therefore came to the field every day. A refreshing tumble in… read more

Vom Workawayer (Kim) für Host

It was my first workaway experience and i cannot express how grateful I am for the 2 month experience I had here :)

Julius and his family have always been so generous to me. Not once did I stay in a hostel or hotel during my 3 months stay in Kenya, instead i was invited and welcomed by his family/distant family in multiple cities. While I also… read more had unforgettable times outside of Nyagwethe, after leaving the village for 2 weeks, I decided to return. As I missed Julius, his family, the football team, the food and the unimaginable beauty of the lake.

The first days I arrived in Nyagwethe i was not alone. 4 other workawayers / friends stayed and helped me to adapt to the village life. For the rest of my stay I was the only workawayer (probably because of Covid travel restrictions). As especially the older family members didn't speak english, I started learning bits and pieces of Luo and it was such a joy as everybody loved seeing you trying to understand Luo :) Most of my time, I spent with Julius, his brother Charles and Bonface. During the day I played and coached football and spent a lot of time with the teenager and kids of the football club, visiting their homes and families or just strolling around. At night I would spent time with the family of Julius, play cards eat and talk all night.

I expected to be involved in the school before I came, but my small worry quickly disappeared as the village life and all the people in the village were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Sometimes I truly believe that they helped me more than I helped them, but while i was there i could see gradual and constant changes being made with Julius help. According to his life motto "Go slow and you'll reach faster" ;)

Of course there are some things you must be open to adapt, if you never been to the country side of Kenya.
For example: the sanitary situation or getting constant attention as you are visibly a foreigner (the reaction is almost always pure happiness).
I want to emphasize that you will adapt quite quickly if you're open to it. Sometimes the changes could even be extremely positive for instance: showering in the lake, became one of my best and most beautiful rituals of each day. I would take a swim in the lake, which flickering reflection of the setting sun will always stay in my memories.

So if you are open to truly open up to get to know, to adapt to life in the Luo culture and people (which is in my opinion more integral for my experience in Nyagwethe, than anywhere else I've ever been to), you are going to have a lovely experience as the people you meet make the experience :)

Erokamano Julius for absolutely everything :)

Kim

Tip: learning just a handful of words will be highly appreciated ;)

We spent 10 very nice days in Nyagwethe alongside Julius and his family as well as some other volunteers. It is a pretty chilled place,so much that you have to push a bit for things to start.
