After a long day of battling Nairobi traffic, dealing with work stress or trying to survive Kenya’s ever-rising cost of living, sometimes you just need a lighthearted mental escape before bed. So, grab your cup of uji or tea, get cozy and let’s play a little game of “Would You Rather?”—Kenyan edition!
- Would you rather be stuck in Nairobi traffic for 6 hours without air conditioning or ride in a noisy matatu blasting gengetone at full volume?
- Would you rather live in a peaceful village with no WiFi and zero network signal or in a chaotic city apartment with loud neighbors but unlimited high-speed internet?
- Would you rather have an unlimited supply of nyama choma and beer at your local joint or get free fuel for your car for a year?
- Would you rather relive high school under the 8-4-4 system with crazy punishments or be a CBC parent trying to keep up with school projects every week?
- Would you rather have KPLC power cuts every evening for three hours or survive on Safaricom bundles without access to WiFi for a whole week?
- Would you rather win a fully paid trip to Dubai for a week or get a tax-free salary in Kenya for a year?
- Would you rather go on a romantic baecation to the Maldives with no photos or social media proof, or get an all-expenses-paid trip to Mombasa with viral Instagram-worthy moments?
- Would you rather eat githeri for breakfast, lunch and supper for a whole month or survive solely on blue-band-and-bread sandwiches for the same duration?
- Would you rather get a dream job that pays well but forces you to work 16-hour days or a low-stress job that pays just enough to survive with no savings?
- Would you rather marry someone who makes you laugh but is broke or a wealthy partner who has the personality of a dry coconut?
As you prepare to drift off to sleep, let your imagination run wild with these fun dilemmas. There’s no right or wrong answer… just a good way to unwind, smile, and forget the day’s stress. Sweet dreams! 😴✨
