This woman is a friend of my friend Cynthia's mother; got that? She is as sweet as pie and hung out with me while Cynthia was at work. She even did my haggling for me at the markets in Swahili so that I could get the "local" price. This is her in front of her giant home. She and her husband own a business that sells computer equipment. She has been to the states many times to visit her children that live there.
Her backyard is opposite the "president" of Somalia's backyard.
Downtown Nairobi.
The license plate on the left is red to signify that a United Nations worker drives that vehicle. The UN has two headquarters, one in New York City and one in Nairobi. They are a very privileged demographic in Nairobi; they have their own heavily guarded shopping center and petrol station.
This is Cynthia's mom on her small farm outside of the city. She is also as sweet as pie. (I have no idea where I got that expression from).
