Patricia Wanjiku
A home-stay set up in a semi-urban surrounding, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The guest house is in a very quiet and leafy environment, surrounded by nature. Our guests are one with nature & the experience of fresh air and a cool breeze all day long is just breath taking. Waking up to the sound of birds chirping, sighting of squirrels, butterflies, and an occasional visitation by the neighborhood primates, is just a beautiful way to begin ones day.
Patricia is a Professional Counsellor /Psychologist & Certified Mediator. A mother, who enjoys traveling, reading, exercising & good company. I have an appreciation of nature. An ardent traveler, who has visited several African Countries, the Himalayas, Paris, India, North America, Europe & the UK. Indian cuisine is my favorite. Interacting with people comes easy for me. I'm also a member of the Counseling & Parenting group within my church. Whereas I enjoy hosting, I respect my guests space & privacy, but always a phone call away should they need any assistance.
The neighborhood is in a very quiet, secure and leafy suburb. The homes are predominantly Stand alone Homes. The roads are tarmacked, well lit & maintained. There are pedestrian walkways. Uber services are within proximity. Nearby amenities-: The 5 Star Safari Park Hotel, Thika Rd Mall, (TRM), Garden City Mall, Windsor Country Club, The Village Market, Karura Forest Park, Muthaiga Golf Club, X-ing Horse back riding school, just to name a few
