The journey at 7 miles

  They say that a journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. We took the first step at the beginning of November 2020. Don't ask why only 7 miles. Just let me tell you. I love number 7, it signifies completion and our establishment phase is complete. The journey has been real. Hardwork, grit, pressure, lows, highs, good and bad times. All of it speak of the journey. We started with two team members. We have grown to seven team members. We started without an office and now we have an amazing space where the team sits and we are still able to offer nine workstations for people who need space to work from. Our first sale was Kes. 2,500 and now our sales are so much more in a month. We didn't have any structures at the beginning. Now we have well formed structures.

If you want to meet a loyal and loving woman, my Eve should be your next meet. Every additional year she gets becomes first a gracious gift to me then to her. Don't get me wrong, it's just that she takes care of me more than she takes care of herself. This is her second birthday we are celebrating in Kilifi. The first was just a week after we had moved here from Nairobi. We just had a small "Fayaz" cake (I didn't even put a sad face, it was a terrible cake) with our very

All the way to Twenty Seven

 I know there are  so many stories out there, stories about success, about love, about escape, about everything you can imagine. But this is my story. The story of village boy who became so much and is still becoming. I am turning 27 today and I can't even understand how fast I got here. Then I looked at my graduation photo hanged in our house and it all came rushing and I couldn't hold the tears. If it were not for God, let Andrew say. If it were not for God! I was born in a small village called Kizingo in Dida, Ganze sub-county. Being born fourth but the first son is great but not so great! I grew up mostly with my three sisters and mum - you know this story already if you read my blog. I don't wanna talk about that today. Growing up, there was no exposure whatsoever. The furthest I went was my father's place in Bombolulu - Mombasa. Nothing much there apart from playing in that house with kina Tatu and Mariam and sometimes go to the highway to watch vehicles pass and
