Nairobi is such a unique blend of multinationals as well as a wonderful mixture of Kenyans from a variety of backgrounds, including the Kenyan diaspora who have returned to their country. My first week back involved being a part of this rich multicultural setting. A respected colleague of mine flew up from South Africa and had me co-train with her an Indian family recently arrived from Dubai.

He was so open to sharing about his experiences with us. At one point he told us, "I'm just going to use you guys as my sounding board, a kind of counselor." One of my greatest joys is seeing someone get one step closer to work
