Why: To  do something good for our country, measure our creativity and Twitter clout and hopefully make some new friends.

What’s The Process?

1. Send out a creative tweet about peace #ChaguaPeace or #ChaguaAmani #MkenyaDaima #ILoveKenya
2. Get your friends to retweet it
3. Get 10 bob for every retweet you receive for your creative tweet (see terms)

Example of a tweet: If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other  #ChaguaPeace 

NB: Feel free to tag me cc @samgichuru  or @gina_din on your tweets for a retweet from us

Tip: if you add RT infront of your tweet, it will encourage your Twitter followers to RT it. This will be rewarded in blocks of 25 50 retweets, basically if you get 24 49 retweets, you don’t get anything.

• 25 retweets = 250 bob
• 50 retweets = 500 bob
• 100 retweets = 1000 bob
• 150 retweets = 1500 bob

Please do not retweet your own tweets that will be shady

If your tweet gets stolen, pole, we can’t help you

This goes on until the entire Kshs 10,000 has been spent. This money has been donated by my friends and our target is 1000 peace messages. Please help.

Thank you Guys, – We closed this – If you can prove you had most retweets as above – get intouch Bless you

Any Questions ?

Below are a few tips on how to backpack, Why did I do it? – for the same reason I do everything else, I want to believe that we can all achieve what we desire if we put our mind and heart into it, I spent roughly $3000 (Kshs 200,000). normally I try and hustle an extra 10-20K a month to travel at the end of the year, so every year since 2010 I have managed to visit, North America (Califonia, Vegas, Dallas), Dubai, South Africa, Rwanda, Burundi, etc

1. Pack Lightly: I packed 4 pairs of Jeans, 6 Tshirts, 4 Vests, 3 pairs of underwear, 3 pairs of Socks, 1 pair of Shoes, 1 leather jacket, pair of gloves and Scarf, all this fitted in one bag plus toiletries , I washed my cloths every 4 day if I could find a Laundromat. Always pay attention to the weather before you travel, Winter will require heavy clothing than summer, hence a bigger bag.  Read the rest of this entry »

The Lord is my programmer, I shall not crash.
He installed His software on the hard disk of my heart. All of His commands are user friendly.
His directory guides me to the right choices for His name’s sake. Even though I scroll through the problems of life,
I will fear no bugs, for He is my back-up.
His password protects me.
He prepares a menu before me in the presence of my enemies.His help is only a keystroke away.
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life and my file will be merged with His and saved forever.

Amen
