Breakfast in Malindi. Dinner in Milan. This is how Daniel Kirui Njoroge would ideally live his life. He travels a lot, you see. This, travelling, is his love story. He loves Malindi so much so that he, in the past year, has learned how to swim. This is the promise of life as you like it—an unscrolling vista of pleasure and indulgence.
Like a dimension you could slip into, or be sucked into, by an undertow. Why Malindi? Until you are in it, you don’t know; but when you are in it, it’s all that you know. Though he travels a lot, he is actually not a dilettante, but a businessman. He is the Managing Director of Afropack Group, which offers engineered integrated processing and packaging solutions, all done in Italy. Italy, where he borrows his Mediterranean diet and gioia de vivre. Joy of living. With his ease of being, he seems to be able to wear life as a loose overcoat.
