“𝙒𝙊𝙍𝙆 𝙄𝙎 𝙇𝙄𝙁𝙀. 𝙇𝙄𝙁𝙀 𝙄𝙎 𝙒𝙊𝙍𝙆.”

My name is Ken, from Nairobi, Kenya. 🇰🇪

I’m not in Tokyo — I’m in the hustle of Nairobi.

But the feeling is the same:

Low pay. Long hours. Endless pressure.

You give everything to your job, your boss, your clients —

and somehow still feel invisible.

Here, we don’t call it “Shachiku”.

We just call it “kuvumilia job” —

staying in a place that drains your energy

while you force a smile and say, “I’m grateful.”

Sometimes I want to quit.

But the fear of bills, family, and “what will people say?” holds me back.

So instead, I document it —

this slow, quiet exhaustion of the soul —

and turn it into something real and honest.

The side of Nairobi life you never see on Instagram.

Welcome to the cage. 🥀
