Has anyone stayed in Nairobi for longer and can share costs/tips?


in Nairobi , Kenya by @alexlielacher  | 7 comments

I am strongly considering ditching SEA for East Africa this summer. I just doing the cost analysis, but I am not sure how much food, drink and neccessities will be per month in Nairobi (and Kenya in general). Has anyone been lately who could advise?

My cost analysis so far is:
Flight - ยฃ350 (from Europe one way)
Visa - ยฃ35
Accom - ยฃ250 (airbnb)
Co-working space - ยฃ110
Gym - no idea?!
Food, drink, entertainment - ???!!!

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :slight_smile:
