Have you ever been to Iten, in Eldoret, the home of champions? If you haven’t then you should. (News: Kenya Airways now flies down daily). I love Iten because I love the romance of cold and the seduction of fog. I love green rolling hills and the endless mystery of the land.
I love Kerio View Hotel’s main restaurant and bar, how crumbly it might seem for a first-timer, with the painfully obvious African artwork and carvings and the Maasai tablecloths. I love the constant invitation of the fireplace at night, the high ceilings, and the view from the glass windows during the day.
