Change is a tough road to navigate. Following a visit to America, Mandy returns to the beautiful Mombasa coast with her family for a retreat. The coast is usually a welcoming time for the family to catch up with friends and escape the bustling city of Nairobi. But not this year.  Mandy's parents seem more antisocial than usual, and friends who have gone to boarding school are now in high school. Heartbreak, unloyal friends, and a dangerous decision all pave the way for new territory. Has the country Mandy left changed while she was away? Or has she changed?

Nairobi Dreaming - Complete! by dani
28 parts Complete
University friends Luisa and Kay reunite in Nairobi after a year apart to do some feel good volunteering but their friendship and the trip begin to unravel the moment they meet a strikingly handsome British philanthropist and a Ghanaian entrepreneur. In short order the donor funding the project that has brought them together is revealed to be rich and cruel, her interest in coming to Kenya to "help" routed in deeply disturbing ideology. Meanwhile, Luisa must confront her reasons for maintaining her friendship with Kay, her status as heir to a nearly incalculable fortune, her feelings for a man who seems a little too good to be true and the tragedy she left behind back in California. ** A/N This story is a work of fiction, but it's based on things I saw and heard while working in international development for five years. It's my attempt to find the complicated middle ground between those who would idealize international development and those who would condemn it. It's also a place for me to deal with a difficult friendship I had with a friend who was suffering from mental illness. She's since passed away and I'm not sure I ever really got over it. The story isn't at all done so as I'm writing I'm figuring it out too. I've set the story Nairobi and in Kisumu, which is far west of Nairobi. I've picked the title partly because of what Nairobi represents. Nairobi is a throbbing, innovative metropolis situated in a continent that is still viewed very narrowly as a place in need of help.
