"Expatriates in Kenya appreciate the warm hospitality of the local people, the vibrant culture, and the beautiful landscapes. They also enjoy the diverse cuisine, the rich history, and the vibrant music and dance. Additionally, expats appreciate the strong sense of community and the strong family values that are so prevalent in Kenyan culture," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Kenya.
"Conservation has a new meaning to me. I am used to large game parks with big 5, but the abundance in the smaller game parks here surpasses what I have experienced in South Africa. I honestly thought that all the game would be eaten by now, but reality is that they are well preserved," commented one expat who made the move to Nairobi, Kenya.
