A tiny win from Nairobi that made my week from my lunch break notes

I tried this in Nairobi with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. restaurants got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

This reminds me of something a friend in Toronto mentioned. That is where the boring checklist helps.

Beautifully put. I needed that reminder today. My friend tried it in Melbourne and had the opposite result.
