At the junction of University Way and Koinange Street over looking University of Nairobi, a young man wearing a cap sits on the floor the whole day with a bowl of beads, and wrist bands displayed on the floor.
He told me his name is Chris and comes from Kilgoris. He is self taught in the art of making wrist bands from beads which he sources from downtown. A wrist band with your name goes for about Sh150, without goes for a Sh100.
