Intro:

My name is Thomas Kagiri, born in a very beautiful country called Kenya. Thinking about my home town, am filled with sweet memories of the childhood adventures in the savannah grass lands. A times when we climbed the mountains as young scouts, taking care of animals and conserving trees. I come from a farming community down the slopes of Mt-Kenya, we grow the popular Kenyan tea & the aromatic Kenyan coffee. I am a child of the earth, Kenyan by birth, studied in the Scandinavia and lives in the island of Ireland. Quite a combination of culture, I must say

Fun fact about my country / myself:

Kenya is in the East Africa, home to the great rift valley. The Equator divides the country into half, introducing different climates within one country. If you're fascinated by wildlife this is the place to be any time of the year. Kenya has a warm, humid climate along its Indian Ocean coastline, with wildlife-rich savannah grasslands inland towards the capital. Nairobi has a cool climate which becomes colder closer to Mount Kenya, which has three permanently snow-capped peaks. Further inland, there is a warm and humid climate around Lake Victoria, and temperate forested and hilly areas in the western region. The northeastern regions along the border with Somalia and Ethiopia are arid and semi-arid areas with near-desert landscapes. Lake Victoria, the world's second largest fresh-water lake and the largest tropical lake, is situated to the southwest

Questions asked by Conall:

What was the most fun project you ever participated in and why?

What is your personal life dream?

To leave a distinctive mark in my life, to be remembered for a good reason.
