Kay Recommends

Hi there,

I’m Kahembo, but my friends (and now you!) can call me Kay. If you’ve found your way here, it’s either because you know me or someone who does pointed you in this direction. Either way, welcome—you’re in great hands, I promise!

Over the years, friends, family, and even friends of friends have often turned to me for recommendations—where to eat, what to read, which hotels to escape to, or which spas to unwind at. I’ve loved curating these little gems, and now, I’m sharing them with you.

Here’s the best part: this isn’t some sponsored list or paid ad. Nope! Every restaurant, hotel, spa, and book you’ll find here has been personally tried, tested, and wholeheartedly loved by me. It’s a Kay-approved collection, built from experience, adventure, and passion.

I’ve walked the streets, tasted the meals, read every page, and soaked up every moment from these recommendations. And guess what? The feedback I’ve received from sharing these treasures has been amazing—it fills my heart knowing they’ve made others as happy as they’ve made me.

My hope? That something on this list will help you fall in love—whether it’s with Nairobi, my home countries of Kenya and Uganda, the magic of the African continent, or even the joy of a good book.

So, dive in, explore, and let’s create some unforgettable moments together.

Welcome to my world!

Kay
