I got here nice and safe and totally enjoyed the cozy flight. It’s been so busy with the Glenn’s taking me everywhere and getting me all this things :-).I am having such a great time, I have to pinch n kick myself all the time to make sure this is real and is truly happening. God bless your heart for thinking of needy people and starting the Palmhouse Foundation because you are truly transforming and changing lives.

I am a 2nd born of 5 children and sadly my father is disabled and is a beggar in town. My mother has been bedridden for a long time now, she had a lump which was operated at a local hospital which became worse but we do not have money to take her to the National Hospital. My Father’s relatives were killed in a massacre when my father was younger so we do not have a close family nearby. Our 1st born sister is married to a pastoralist.

Actually my term was so short that I did not notice it was coming to an end. I got to do a number of examinations including the ‘famous’ mocks. They were really challenging and I believe that the examinations have me motivated to work harder and smarter and owing to the fact that am sitting for my final exams KCSE at the end of this year, I really need to know my strengths and weaknesses.

In the meantime, I am a teacher at a local secondary school in Kisumu. It is a small school with Form 2 as the highest level. I teach Mathematics and Physics and I find it interesting and humbling. Coming from a National school where everything was availed to the comfort of the students and teaching in a school where resources are limited has really exposed and challenged me.

During April holidays, I had a chance to teach in my former primary school my favorite subject- Social Studies. It is through this that I got money to purchase my school books.
