Mombasa
Hey hey Jason, Well compared to Nairobi it is very safe. Overall it is fine but still need to be a little wary but this is mainly at night time. We think this is the case for most towns in Kenya but during the day you'll be fine. Just pickpockers may be following the tourists around. It is a nice city but head to the beaches, very nice here! Good luck mate and have a good time

Very interesting, especially since I\'m heading off to Mombasa next April. I\'ll have to keep my wits about me to fend off the shysters, especially as I\'ll be by myself. Out of interest, how safe did you feel in Mombasa, when you were simply walking around town? Thanks...

It's interesting to hear that Kenyans take advantage of CS to promote their travel agencies, the same happened to me in Fiji. I guess you gotta be really wary and cautious who to stay with, and read the experiences thoroughly. Nairobi doesn't sound like an enticing place at all, but staying in the hotel and waiting to be picked up for safari seems a bit too paranoid to me. I guess if you use common sense when walking about town, you'd be fine.

Great blog!
Beauty blog guys, great pics too. I totally agree with you that seeing the people of different places gives you a much greater experience than seeing the sites. I love that pic of the traffic in Nairobi by the way, it reminds me of Dar. Anyways, great blog and enjoy your safari!

Informative Blog!
Thanks for the information on couchsurfing. I've wondered about couchsurfing for years but was a little wary. I do home exchanges but the only negative is you may not meet them. I think this is a great way to meet fabulous fun friendly people from around the world, and much better than staying in a lonely hotel. Congrats on being the featured bloggers!

Diana & Chris, you are the greatest ambassadors for CouchSurfing - and role models for me as a CS newbie. :) "Where are you going next? Oh - that's right on the way to our flat, let us walk you there!" TWICE!! You two are great! I visited eight cities and tried to connect with CSers in all of them. Vilnius is by far the most vibrant and welcoming, and the weekly meetings make it easy for a traveler to pop in and make new friends any time! Diana & Chris are a major part of that, but it helps that so many others have the same generous spirit. This is a great Blog and I'm sure it will inspire others!

Indeed!
Indeed CS is a great thing. I've been registered for over a couple of years, and although haven't used it as much travelling, I often go to the weekly meetings/drinks here. Always a great group of people to hang out with - highly recommended thing to get involved with :-)

An Aussie trying to travel as much of the world as possible.. Love to see and experience new things, silly things, food things, anything! I'm a budget traveller who prefers to visit the locals rather than the local attractions. Travel for me is about experiencing new cultures and accepting people for who they are. We wish to help people to travel the world as it is an amazing place with so much to see and do, travelling is easy once you make the decision to go. The hardest part for most making the decision to book that ticket but that is the beginning for life changing and rewarding experi... full info
