    Personal highlights

    1. Maasai Market: there is a dozen of market places to reach all tourists or foreigners
    2. Sales agents: Kenyans are friendly, but quite aggressive and persistent sales people
    3. Extreme prices: the prices are beyond reasoning, up to tenfold the effective price
    4. Manufacturing: learning about dedicated production camps outside the big cities
    5. Rastafarian: having fun with a local trader about Kenyan eating habits (like ugali)
