In the heart of Nairobi, two worlds collide in the most unexpected way.

Zawadi Njeri is a free-spirited children's book author who believes in living life barefoot and on "divine timing." Her days are filled with hiking forest trails, chasing butterflies, and writing stories that nurture the soul. She's spontaneous, soulful, and utterly unpredictable.

Chuka Okonkwo is a Nigerian chef with a laser focus on routine, precision, and planning every second of his life. Recently relocated to Nairobi to open a cutting-edge pan-African fusion restaurant, he treats time as currency and order as sacred.

When a chance encounter in Karura Forest sparks a clash of personalities, their worlds continue to bump into each other - from a kids' menu collaboration to food expos and poetry nights. Through laughter, arguments, and unexpected moments, Zawadi and Chuka discover that love isn't something you can schedule or plan.

"Chopsticks & Compass" is a heartfelt romantic comedy drama about the messy, beautiful balance between chaos and control, spirituality and structure, and the magic that happens when opposites truly attract. Set against vibrant Nairobi backdrops - from lush hiking trails to bustling cafés - this story celebrates African culture, food, nature, and above all, the unpredictable journey of love.
