Known as the safari capital of Africa, Nairobi is an energetic, modern city that serves as a fascinating introduction to both wildlife and nightlife. Music clubs pulse with life, shops and markets bustle, and a mélange of restaurants will tempt your palate in this former Maasai watering hole. Top sights include the Karen Blixen Museum, Giraffe Centre and the black rhinos of Nairobi National Park. The compact city center is safe to walk in and taxis make other areas accessible.

I went on a Thursday to catch the Masai market on the roof and meet a friend for some dinner after. Being new to Nairobi I was a bit sceptical about how much fun could be had at a shopping centre but this one surprised me! Really great shopping options, friendly staff and safe environment to wander around alone. Prepare to get your haggle on at the market and don't be afraid to say no if you want to, although I had so much fun conversations with market sellers it was worth the few extra things I was convinced into buying. Afterwards had some yummie pasta, cocktails and jazz at the Artcaffe - a great Thursday date!
