The reason? apparently a letter from my college stating that I am a graduate, complete with school seal, is not good enough proof for the Kenyan Immigration Authority that I am educated.
I guess I'll need to send someone on a hunt for my diploma, which I'm sure is very buried and very dusty in storage.
Would have been nice to have known this before I paid for the letter from school and WAY before it was time for my tourist visa to expire.
Not just Kenya actually, the region... something about an East African Visa makes it unacceptable to just cross over into Tanzania or Uganda and hop back in. And heading north seems like a bad idea at the moment; Somalia and Sudan both having their issues. Ethiopia could be an option, but I'm not really sure yet where I'll go.
It's not like I'm not up for an adventure, but this necessary trip was unexpected and therefor not budgeted for.
Not knowing a lot of people in surrounding countries makes it even more expensive because hotels have to be factored in and unless I want to sit on a bus or a train for days, airfare also has to be considered.
I know that God already has an idea for me, He just hasn't told me yet.
I will have to leave by November 30, and will also need to look into acquiring a visa for wherever I'm headed, so please join me in praying for travel details and expenses to be provided for very quickly.
Any suggestions for cheap travel on this continent?
email me I have a public/high friend living in S.A. for over 20+ yrs. Also, Andy and I have a mutual friends mom in S.A. Also, my tenants are from Zimbabwe and I have timeshares available in Nov./Dec. in either Zimbabwe, S.A. or Egypt you can go to. Just need to know which place will be the easiest to get to and how long you need to be there. Also, are you talking about me hunting for your diploma? if so give me some clues on where to start. oh if I find it can you stay where you are?
