Watamu Beach
Last time we holidayed in Kenya we didn’t have sunscreen with a high enough SPF. Let’s just say we learnt the hard way...
Old Market
The little Kenyan town where a number of the locals are fluent in Italian. There’s a long history between Italy and the Town of Malindi. One of the major positives of the influx of Italian expats is having delicious authentic Italian food in the heart of a little Kenyan town.

A little piece of Italy.
