Hi Everyone,

I will arrive this September in Nairobi with my wife and my baby girl (and two cats...). We are not clear if there is any use of a Stroller for our girl. She is 1 years old and we plan to do some walk around either in Nairobi or, mostly, in the country side.

Any experience on that would be great.

And as a kind of game, but for sure very helpful for us, what would be the one thing you regret you had not taken with you when you came to Nairobi. You can name whatever thing you have in mind either clothes, electronic, cooking or sport gear....

Thank your for your help.

Please read previous posts in the forum...

Regarding the stroller, my answer is NO because there are only no pavements/walkways on Kenyan road, so you will really struggle to push the stroller. Same in country side... unless you really can't do without it.

You better use a baby carrier.

Oh, you really have to be carrying your baby on you most times. I don't have a baby yet though.
