Easter Bunny is dead

Last weekend kenyan christians celebrated Easter. Apparently slightly different.In Romania we spend this by eating a lot of food, going to the church at midnight to take the holly light, and then party into a club because we are happy that J resurected, eating and drinking until the ambulance takes us to hospital.
This weekend I celebrated Easter thinking about my family and friends at home. I had a lot of intimacy in my personal celebration due to the fact that for everyone else around me it was an usual weekend.
Saturday morning I arrived in Nairobi. I hanged around the streets listening to rock music on the radio. At 6.30 any city in the world looks clean, safe and peaceful. For me mornings are the best time to look for a cafe. I found one near the University and I had the best breakfast since I arrived here ( maybe I am lying). Then I left my luggage at the office and went for a walk on upper hill. It was so clean and green that I felt I am not in Nairobi anymore. At one point I found an anglican church and went inside. Because I really need traditions in my life. In the last years, Easter Holidays were the best time to spend with family. Finding inner peace and strenthening connections with the relatives. At noon I attended a mentorship workshop organized with the Alumnies. It was so nice to discover these beautiful people ( and I am not talking about women only). It's something much deeper that AIESEC does to ordinay people....transforming them into something extraordinay. Or mircles like Deli would say.
In the afternoon I met them. The people who are the substitute for my family here. My friends from different continents. The ones near whom I feel safe and myself.
An hour ago I had dinner with them at a chinesse reastaurant. While we were eating and complaining about the size of the dishes (too small) I realized that even though I miss a real romanian fest, I am so greatful for every second spend with those guys.

I am glad that I managed to kill the Easter Bunny and discover the importance of Easter.
