A Sunday out and about

I took my mum to Kwa Thema and together we went round to most of the houses talking to people. Most people were out and about with it being Sunday. I got most of the groundwork done and people are starting to recognise me. Most people are still asking me to help them in some way and it is quite hard to explain that I can’t be that person that helps them.

But what I have learnt is that what at first appears to be ingenuity and resourcefulness is really the work of a few. There appears to be a few craftsmen and mural artists who do all of the personalisation and decoration and that most people employ others to create these elements of their homes. It was quite disappointing to realise this but I suppose that in reality this is how it works everywhere and there is no reason to believe that Kwa Thema would be any different.
