My biggest reason for choosing to live in the countryside is the quality of life.
It is such a privilege to live slowly and curate what our days look like.

Hi please, hi very much.
I work because I thoroughly enjoy what I do. It's my life's work. Look up: 'dharma/purpose'.

The windows & doors of this tiny house are all made with timber from my parents' farm.
Windows - mūiria (prunus Africana*)
Doors - podo & jacaranda.
My folks planted a Meru Oak when I was a kid & joked that I'd use it to make a 'wall unit' when I got married.
Guess who's not married & collecting her Meru Oak for exposed timber trusses this year? 😄

Entry - Ihūrūinī (off Nyeri - Mweiga Rd). Exit - Ndūnyū Njerū (North Kinangop)
50KMS+ of "This is so beautiful!" And nursery rhymes for wildlife.

Accountability, Miss Mandi, includes but isn't limited to:
- taking full responsibility for your actions.
- atoning for your errors.
- seeking forgiveness from those you've hurt.
Not this white noise.
It is said that you can’t preach water and drink wine. Your actions always need to match your words. Here’s to continuously holding oneself accountable when you are called out on your behavior.

Eating sustainably in our household looks like:
- batch making for the week/fortnight (jams, cheeses, butter, ghee, granola)
- growing produce
- eating seasonally (fruit, nuts)
- buying from neighbors what we don't grow
- sourcing local (e.g 🐟 from Sagana)

Do you know how rigorous the past school year has been for kids?
Do we understand that everyone in the school setting is burnt out?
Schools are not assembly lines.
Kids & teachers, especially in boarding schools, are hanging on by a thread.

AT ANY TIME.
Slowed down to raise my little bubbas (now 5 & 3). With it came feelings of "being left behind" by peers in the ways of career progression.
This year, I dared.
With it has come 3 scholarships, opportunity to serve in my dream role & amazing sisterhood.
💃🏾✨️
To my younger girlies I want you to know that you can pivot at anytime for any reason and do anything you want. You don’t have to dedicate yourself to any one identity, purpose, location, relationship or career.
You can literally create anything you want and just be that.

We put these hives on my parents' farm in Mbeere a year ago, but tenants said nope. Not with all these pesticides from the neighbors' mūgūka plantations.
So I'm setting up a little apiary on the corner of my little 0.25 acre. Two are fully occupied! ✨🥰

It's that:

Instead of opening up forests 'to cultivate' at the high risk of destroying what's left of our natural ecosystems, why not focus our energies on:
1) reclaiming wetlands, semi-arid & arid land?
2) regenerative agricultural practices
3) growing drought resistant crops like quinoa?

On this Mwende, I beg to differ.
"To poison a nation, you poison its stories."
They devalued our spirituality, tore at the core of our social structures. Religion is how we were "softened" for colonisation.
Pray do tell why we had to take on white names upon baptism?

This is what happens when you have brutes in charge of education:
- no one (neither staff nor students) is seen or heard
- teachers are severely maltreated
- curriculum is forced down everyone's throats
- children suffer unnecessary trauma.
