Hi all,

Newbie on the Kenya forum? Don't know how to start?

This thread is for you ;)

We invite you to introduce yourself on this topic, to share with us your expat story if you are already living in the country,
or to tell us more on your expat projects in Kenya if you are planning to move there.

It will enable us to help you better but above all to wish you a warm welcome.

Welcome on board!

Sunggook

Hi. I'm new here.
I used to be a software engineer for 8 years in South Korea and have experience in voluntary work for two years in Kenya(2008, 2020).
I'd like to move to Kenya with my family and if there's a chance, I'd like to teach computer classes to Kenyan youth who want to be a programmer.
Unfortunately, I had to come back to Korea last year cause of coronavirus and am searching for a permit to stay in Kenya longer. So, I would be happy to listen if you could give me any advice about the permit or some tips for living in Nairobi(I just stayed in a rural place when I was in Kenya).
I'm happy that I can communicate with you all and again I appreciate your advice.

Hello Sunggook,

Welcome to Expat.com, and thank you for your introduction. :)

Whichever the topic, please do not hesitate to ask your questions related to it by starting a new thread on the Kenya forum.

I hope you will soon get to be back in Kenya. ;)

Keep us posted, via future posts on the forum, about your situation.

Good luck,

Diksha
