Lamu town hosted the Lamu Food Festival between 15th to 17th April 2016 and a group of bloggers and I had the privilege to attend it.
This being my first time in Lamu I was excited to explore the Old town and sample delicious Swahili dishes. Just with any new experience one can feel a bit overwhelmed with the things to do and see. Well not to worry, Jay shared with the group a list of things to experience and take photos of while experiencing a new town or city.
This post will highlight how I saw Lamu. Hope you get to fall in love with the town as I did.
