I stayed with Alice or (Mama Alice) and her family for almost seven weeks. It was such a great experience! I was travelling by myself but they welcomed me into their home and made me feel like my family. I was volunteering at Safisha, the school that Alice founded for underprivileged children in that area. If you stay here, you should also definitely visit the school and see the amazing work that is being done. The children are so precious and I will always hold them in my heart! The homestay was in a safe area, very clean, and well-maintained. It is also easily accessible by bus, taxi, etc. You will not regret staying here, you will have amazing memories for a lifetime!

I had the pleasure to stay at Alice´s place for about 6 weeks in total. I tried to help out at the school she runs through her NGO which is for children who many come from difficult backgrounds and are raised up in extreme poverty. If you have the opportunity I definitely recommend that you visit the school and say hello to the children.
I enjoyed my time at her place and fully recommend it. It´s such a valuable experience and so much better than staying at an expensive hotels.
Alice is one of those unique persons I´ve met in my lifetime, who will not just stay with me in my memories but also in my heart. I miss Alice and her family dearly but when I think about them it always brings a smile to my face.

I had a great stay at Alice's home and family! She is the best host I have met during my trip through Africa, always happy and smiling, making sure that we were ok :) . The food was very nice too and the house is situated in a safe compound in Nairobi. I would defenitely recommend everyone who is planning a trip to Nairobi to stay here!
