When I was still a newbie at InterCont, I used to stay on after my shift, & ask if there was anything else I could do. One day a much older colleague took me to a pillar in the lobby and thumped it, saying, "Unaona hii? Ndio imeshikilia hii hoteli, hapana wewe. Enda nyumbani." 😂

Nairobi has a certain perpetual urgency. A restlessness. An agitation. A tension. A certain uneasy vibration that hovers over it. You don't realise or feel it till you step away. Everyone needs to take regular breaks from this city, even if for just 24 hours.
