MAMI AFRIKA

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

..I am an advocate for LOVE and PEACE. It starts with YOU and ME, then outwards. I am very passionate about life and the people in my life. I was born and raised by my grandmother in a small village in central Kenya. My art and designs celebrate the life and culture of African people especially of Kenya. One of my favorite things to do is dance, yes, I love to dance. You can find me any given Thursday evening at Afro Funke in Santa Monica on the dance floor all night. It feels so great, so amazing, so free from everything, just lost in dance. I do get into that same state when I paint, I lose myself and I let my creativity take over. I love to travel the world and mostly I go to Kenya at least once a year to visit. This year, I will go to S. Africa, maybe Ghana, and most probably Italy. Please visit my websites to see further what I do. Life is the best present and I value it to the maximum. Thank you for reading and be blessed.
