I went for an out-of- town road trip with a male friend and what was expected to be a relatively short excursion turned into an annoying lengthy journey simply because my friend - who is not a Kenyan native - utterly refused to stop and ask for directions.?I spent the better part of the trip wishing he would stop and ask some- one how to get to our destination. We got lost a couple of times and he still would not ask for help. His poor sense of direction must have added up to an hour to our journey.
