Sad to read that you are going through hard times in my Village…This is Tom…guess I was right the first time I met you…thought you kinda looked bored and..don’t know…anyway, I have enjoyed reading stuff in your blog. Well, your impression about most things in my community are not way off the mark. That is why I try to be chatty and friendly whenever I meet you in the staff-room.

I guess you might be wondering just what brings me to Otaro? I was a teacher once but I gave up that in order to pursue my writing quest. The going hasn’t been easy, but thanks God I am trudging uphill surely and determinedly. Maybe I will pop into your place ( I wanted to do that last weekend but I was informed you were not in) Maybe to lighten matters, I will read you some of my love poems…the entire book can be found here…http://www.amazon.com/Luscious-Tender-Blossoms-letter-beloved-ebook/dp/B00OFS0KQM…and share with you the experiences that motivated me to write the poems.
Secondly, having read what you have to say here, I am offering to be your tour guide for the remainder of your stay here. I will take you to the hot springs…(We will walk most of the way, if you won’t mind…then we can take a motorbike ride to a volcanic lake not far from Kendu-bay town. Next, we shall sit somewhere and what the full, golden African moon hatching from behind the hills…

Otherwise, you can count on Tom to be a friend…CHEERS!. See you on Monday or Sunday evening…Let me know whether I can come to you place? Text me here 0790341035, or leave my a message on my facebook…Tom Mboya is my name…my page is Creative Digizine Solutions (on face book.

Welcome to the land of Golden Sunsets…
