Paul, Thanks for joining and posting about the residencies. Can you tell us more about them? How would you describe the difference in residency locations - rural kenya vs urban nairobi? Thanks

dear john and readers out there.
lake victoria arts residence centre has two places to live and work from as aforeign artist or lover of african art or cultural tourist....the nairobi city-pace, is urban one-with city traffics,lights,tarmaced roads,public transport,working phone lines,private business internet cafes at walking distance.
while the rural one is rural in acertain primitive village on the shores of lake victoria. person use paths,muddy roads,no cyber cafes but your own computer internet available,bicycle transport,or motor cyles,boats,smell of fish or fishermen nets,rivers,mangroove forests, papyrus,cows,goats,village shoping centre,evening firewarm sessions to get village breaking news etc.
one choices whether for primitive 18th century lif or city life,the new york type-where greating astranger is asin or luxury.
