EXPATS GET-TOGETHER DINNER

Hey chicita, Did the dinner happen? and if it did what was the outcome?

Just my timing, is there another of these?

There will be more next year.

Hi. Am a kenyan who relocated back to kenya from Denmark a year ago. Would like to know whether am eligible to attend and if yes how much is required for the dinner.  Sarah

hi,i think you are eligible bacause you have been an expatriate. Will tell you once we organize another one...welcome back.

Hi, please let me know when you'll organize another one. Hope it will be soon !thanks !

Ok,will do that.

wow...this seems like a great idea...is it just for expats? i get the impression from your response to sarahjingo

It is mainly for expats,but locals are welcome. We would like to share our experiences and get to dimystify a few things here and there,then learn from them...

So are there any plans or suggestions yet? Easter maybe?

That is a nice suggestion,but most people prefer to spend time with their families during Easter. We could do it on a Sunday afternoon,as from 2pm,and it does not have to be a dinner,we could meet up for a drink.

What do you think?

Easter would not be appropriate because most take short holidays that time with familys. Any other time ok with me.

This is a great idea. Am a local but work with expatriates but from Africa. Lunch would be nice. Can I suggest Olepolos? Its a great place and not very far.

Hey Maggie,
Olepolos sounds like a good idea but dont you think it is abit out of town?

Maggie. Olepolos is a good idea especially for those who have never been there will be able to see the beautiful landscapes.

Thanks Sarahjingo, I thought so too. Its a nice cool top of the hill with great roast meat. They also have a swimming pool. I like the scenery around.

It is good that the two of you (Maggie and Sarahjingo) are thinking in a similar direction. How about we meet up this Sunday at 2:00 pm for coffee at Tea Sopt,Koinange street,then we can plan the Olepolos plot?

Hi everyone,
Thanks alot for the feedback.

Looks like we have April as the month for the next get-together. How about the 15th of April in the afternoon? It will be on a Sunday.

Connerd and Dennise,will you be here by then?

Hi Chicita,

As we plan for the next get-together people should suggest what they prefer between coffee, lunch or dinner and also whether its on Saturday and Sunday.

Count me in as well on the 15th of April. Please let me when and where we are going to meet. Number is 0737-809896. Divyesh Pattni

hey chicita

I am in nairobi now - arrived tuesday - look forward to meeting all of you

Hi everybody. I would suggest lunch. Somebody once suggested venue at olepolos.   If it is out of town then lunch is appropriate. If it is within,  then i would suggest dinner.

Olepolos is a nice place but it's a bit far, out of town.

Hi, welcome Connerd.

a)Saturday afternoon(21st April)
b)Sunday after noon(22nd April)

Meeting place:
1)Nakumatt junction
