3D PAINTING

Today, I tried a 3D painting exhibition. This was also popular. I was able to explain it to them. However, it was not accepted by children. Anyway, how much will this lunch cost?

DO-RE-MI-FA-SO-LA TEST TUBE  

I also tried to exhibit a Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La test tube. It wasn't as popular as the hole glasses, but it was still quite popular. I felt that if it didn't have a strong impact, it would lose out to the robotics and ICT exhibits. I also felt…

PRESIDENT RUTO SUDDENLY CAME!

I am on a business trip to the Edgh Hotel this week. President Ruto suddenly came! I couldn't get close, but it was the real President Ruto. I felt his enthusiasm for innovation. I thought it was typical of an emerging country.I received a…

KENYA DEBUT

Finally, I made my debut in Kenya!! I knew I needed to make an impact, so I exhibited Daiso's hole glasses. Since they are difficult to explain, I also exhibited an explanation. I was nervous because I didn't know if Kenyans would like it,…

INNOVATION WEEK

We exhibited at "Innovation Week (↓)", where universities and other institutions exhibit. As expected, the biological exhibits are not popular. I want to do something about it. The chai and lunch are ridiculously luxurious (↓). I think it …

SUDDEN BUSINESS TRIP

This↓ schedule for the next week arrives every Sunday evening. This is the first time I've appeared on the schedule. I'll be on a business trip from Monday to Friday next week. Please tell me that a little earlier.

WILDLIFE IN MY WORKPLACE

I decided to exhibit some photos of wildlife in my workplace.

CANADIAN WATERWEED

I received some Canadian waterweed from the volunteer coordinator. This will help the fish breathe easier. It can also be used as a material for cell observation. I would like to grow it and give it to teachers in Kenya.

OBSERVATION OF CANADIAN WATERWEED

I got some Canadian waterweeds from a JICA staff. Canadian waterweed is American waterweed. But now they are found all over the world. I would like to increase them and distribute them to teachers in Kenya.

GOLDEN CURRY

Curry roux is not generally available in Kenya, but it can be found at the Japanese food store "Jinya." S&B Golden Curry is 1,200 yen↓.

HELLOTALK ENGLISH AI

I think the best way to improve my English conversation skills without bothering others is to have everyday conversations with AI. I want to get used to English conversation with AI, gain confidence, and talk to Kenyans. And I found a good…

YUREMO

I found Yuremo(ユレモ 揺藻) at a nearby shopping mall. Yuremo is a well-known cyanobacteria. Cell colonies are being formed. I would like to show this to students and teachers in Kenya under a microscope like this↓.

LITMUS PAPER

Totoro?? He is a Hyrax, Raccoon family. It was their fault that the roof was so noisy sometimes.

CHAT APP

I felt that I was lacking in English conversation study, so I tried a chat app. Then, I was impressed by how fun it was. It was fun to study English conversation and make friends with foreigners. I think the people I was chatting with felt…

NAIROBI JAPANESE SCHOOL

The Japanese Festival was held at the Nairobi Japanese School. The usual group of four from Nairobi Kiambu enjoyed fried chicken, ramen, tonkatsu, yakitori, and yakisoba. We were also able to go inside the school. We were also able to see …

OBSERVATION OF LACTIC ACID BACTERIA

There are about 10 cats around the cafeteria. I give cats goat meat that I can't chew. Kenyans often give cats vegetables that Kenyans don't like. These are the kittens' brothers↑.

REPORT TO JICA

Kenyans do not work at full effort. It is said that they work at about 70% of their capacity. Therefore, they have peace of mind. Friday is the weekend, so they dress casually and hardly do any work. The majority of people are Christians, …

BAD THINGS ABOUT KENYA

① The food isn't tasty. They should incorporate more Indian food.② There's no medical insurance system. This is a common issue for developing countries.

BIRIYANI

I ordered Mombasa food in Mombasa. It was Biriyani (pictured). It was delicious. It was like pilaf with sauce and meat on top, and it was about three times as delicious as pilaf. After all, the reason why Mombasa food is so good, whether i…

NAIROBI-MOMBASA

I went to Mombasa alone on the SGR (photo1). Tsavo East National Park, located north of the SGR, was full of elephants (photo2) and zebras. The sea in Mombasa (photo3) was as beautiful as I expected. I will exhibit this photo at CEMASTEA. …

MASAI PEOPLE AND COWS

I wasn't surprised that today suddenly changed to a public holiday around 9 o'clock last night. But I was surprised today. When I left the house, the cows came. They were Maasai cows. They were eating grass on the sidewalks. That's why the…

WHY NAIROBI IS PARADISE

JICA volunteering in Nairobi is paradise. Because I can do the work I want to do by utilizing my experience. I can feel my English improving every day. I experience new things every day. There is no summer or winter, so every day is comfor…
