Jeff Walker spent decades traveling the world, serving in the U.S. Navy, and building a successful career in IT. But it wasn't until he visited Kenya that everything changed.

In this episode of the Blaxit Global Podcast, Jeff shares why Nairobi captured his heart, what it feels like to live as an unapologetically Black man in Kenya, and why other countries simply couldn't compete. From first impressions to finding a true sense of belonging, he reflects on the journey that led him to call Kenya home.

Originally from Baltimore, Jeff retired from a career in IT program management and relocated permanently to Nairobi in 2024. Today, he's embracing a new chapter in East Africa—and says he has no plans to leave.

Why Kenya stood out from every other country he visited
What life in Nairobi is really like

The realities of relocating after retirement
The advice he'd give anyone considering a move abroad

If you've ever wondered what it takes to find a place that truly feels like home, this conversation offers an honest look at one man's journey from Baltimore to Nairobi.
