November | 2013 | Another glimpse
https://smachani.wordpress.com/2013/11
Creating and enhancing room for another look at life…. Monthly Archives: November 2013. This is a brief account of some of the obvious differences between Norway and Kenya, as per my observation. The observations are not exhaustive neither are they exclusive; they are simply a part of my perspective…. In Norway, bread is a central and key meal; it is actually what is called food! There is bride-price in Kenya for the bride; but none in Norway! Norway is steadily powered by renewable energy mainly from hy...

Letter from Norway | Another glimpse
https://smachani.wordpress.com/2014/04/30/letter-from-norway
Creating and enhancing room for another look at life…. Fitting into the new culture. I have a lot to tell you but time doesn’t allow. Neither does the space for scribbling permit. So, I will just get into the meat of my writing. I truly had an adventurous journey. Let me begin from the very beginning! Writing had become my new-found pass-time hobby, and I loved it. But then, in the past four months I have been very lazy! I am now seated in one of the favorite rooms for most of my colleagues at Hald.

Creating and enhancing room for another look at life…. Monthly Archives: October 2013. They call them seasons…. Rowing the boat, anticipating football and playing volleyball. Expression of the scare. With snow on, there seems to be a notable glow, which lights the atmosphere for easy visibility. In the very breathe, activities like ice-skating and skiing are undertaken. There is more fun with more snow! The glamor of the snow. By Simiyu . Posted in Cultural observations. Norway is a great country. I...

January | 2014 | Another glimpse
https://smachani.wordpress.com/2014/01
Creating and enhancing room for another look at life…. Monthly Archives: January 2014. Fitting into the new culture. So, in the endeavor to find a place in this amazing Norwegian culture, I have had to become a baby again. I know this sounds hilarious but to say the least, that is the best that one can ever do…😉. It is said that language is the key to any culture! Så snakke jeg litt norsk nå. So, I now speak a little Norwegian)! Tea or chocolate (commonly called “. Jeg liker å gå på hytteturer. I like t...

Creating and enhancing room for another look at life…. Newer posts →. Together in a new land. Being in a new country with lots of new things, new experiences, new people, and new systems is definitely a big leap of faith! More so, when it is that you are to serve God in a seriously secular setting! In each and every matter, one must be willing and ready to pay the price! It is funny how we began our journey to Norway. Hereunder is a pictorial of some of the moments we have had together…. Enjoying the vie...

The journey | Another glimpse
https://smachani.wordpress.com/2013/11/06/the-journey
Creating and enhancing room for another look at life…. The discipline of time. Out with the children →. Every journey has a start and an end. My journey to Norway began all the way back; earlier in the year (about April) while still in the all-honorable yet humble service of the Almighty God among students at the University of Nairobi. Main and Chiromo campuses. A question was posed to me and like popcorns, I popped up in great laughter of disbelief and amazement! Thirdly, my preps for travel to Norway!
