Spent the weekend vibing to house music in Nairobi. Competing DJs on 2 floors, good sound, artwork, creative lighting, and a diverse crowd. Everything I love in a show. So cool to see this scene growing here. Wasn't as big a few years ago!

About to hit the road again for another doc. Weather is a big thing to consider in #Kenya. Long convos, calls to ppl already there, all to figure out which if the rains have hit the area. More rain = more mud = harder to off-road = need a bigger car.

One of my favorite enviro-tech stories we filmed. The subject’s passion was real, the lighting perfect, and the nat sound on point. Snuck in a shot inspired by my favorite Donald Glover video. Watch the full video here: dw.com/en/artificial-… Journalist: Daniel Plafker

I’ve been on the road these past few weeks, but I still squeezed in this video on #TrueCaller’s practices in #Kenya. Loving the response! Next video goes north. Follow the 77 percent for more tech stories. I promise to explain it all in 90 seconds or less! instagram.com/p/DBgtu38NKZC/

Episode 2: This week, we're look at device access and #IMEI registration. We traveled to #Samburu to see how young herdsmen stay connected. Even in Kenya's remotest areas, it looks like the new rule rolling out in January will be hard to dodge. instagram.com/reel/DCRKRryt1…

Our new investigation on carbon credit trading and human rights in Northern #Kenya is out now on DW's Planet A. Western tech corps have invested millions in an #NRT-run scheme, but herders and lawyers are crying foul. Shot with Alexandria. Watch: youtube.com/watch?v=1Qkef6…
