Overview

This trip takes you to 2 attractions, Nairobi national museum, and The Karen Blixen museum. Karen museum, at the foot of the Ngong Hills, 10 kilometers from Nairobi, lies a 19th-century bungalow named after renowned Danish author Karen Blixen. The building houses the Karen Blixen Museum. With its serene environment, lush green lawns, and cool breeze, one cannot help but fall for its charm and promise of tranquillity. Karen Blixen and her husband Baron Bror von Blixen Fincke bought the house built in 1912 by Swedish engineer Ake Sjogren. It served as a farmhouse on their 4,500-acre farm. Ms. Blixen came to Kenya in 1914 to get married to Baron Fincke. The couple grew coffee, though it was not as profitable as they had expected. Seven years later, Blixenā€™s marriage turned sour and she and her husband divorced in 1921, leaving her the sole manager of their farm. She later fell in love with a big-game hunter named Denys Finch Hatton.
