What to check before you sign near Chiromo Lane

This is walk-to-work territory if you pick correctly. Check that the block has a pedestrian gate as well as a vehicle gate — several Chiromo-adjacent towers only open the ramp, which makes walking in awkward after dark.

For this audience the single most important specification is a work desk or home office. A furnished apartment listed as suitable for remote work frequently means a dining table and a hard chair. For anyone taking calls across time zones — and Nairobi's EAT position makes European mornings and US afternoons both workable — a proper desk, a chair you can sit in for eight hours, and a wall you can put behind you on video are not optional.
