Our childhood experiences make up an important part of our core memories. Very often these experiences are shaped by where we grew up. In our adult life, we remember these places as much as we remember the activities we took part in and the people we spent time with.
Our earliest identities and sense of community are tied to these neighbourhoods. We never forget where we came from, which is why we’re filled with pride when we think about where we have roots.
In celebration of where we come from, we’re embarking on a story journey to visit these places Kenyans call home.
Welcome to #MitaaYetu, a series that celebrates Kenya’s unique neighbourhoods. The aim with these stories is to learn about the history of our estates, the changes they have undergone through the years, the present nature of them and the aspects that set them apart from other neighbourhoods.
