I sink into the cushions of my cozy apartment, situated in a bustling city nestled within Kenya’s picturesque rift valley.
Gazing out the window, I am reminded of the boundless opportunities that have come my way since I began my journey as a freelance writer, and earning in US dollars.
The transformation of the Kenyan economy, with its recent increase in dollarization, has made me grateful for the financial stability and security that this mode of payment has afforded me.
It dawns on me that my blessings have been bountiful, and I can’t help but marvel at the wonders that this freelance writing career has brought me.
I want to share my experience with you, to give you a glimpse into the possibilities that come with freelance writing and receiving payment in dollars.
I’ve never shied away from discussing finances be it with my friends or subscribers on YouTube. However, I’ve always maintained a certain level of privacy about my life, sharing just enough to provide others with a perspective of who I am and what I do.
In 2019, I decided to embark on a journey to achieve financial freedom, and over the last four years, I’ve made tremendous strides towards achieving that goal.
The last few months have been a whirlwind for me, with memories that I’ll cherish forever. In November and December, I took a break from writing and creating content on YouTube.
I decided to dip my toes back into the dating world after a three-year hiatus. It was a transformative period I must say.
I’m still not there, as I’ve already realized – but I can say that I’ve fought my demons and won the battle. I know for a fact that I’m ready to love and to be loved.
