View in Google Maps

Gilgil is a town of 20,000 or so inhabitants in the Rift Valley a little more than 100 miles north of Nairobi, Kenya. It is surrounded by so many natural resources beloved by tourists. The town itself is primarily a stopping point for travellers. Poverty is all around and street children abound. There are shops but few industries so most people survive on their wits and the produce of their land.
