FUNZI ISLAND: THE QUIET GEM WHERE "PETE" WAS FILMED

Located at the Southern Coast of Kenya, Funzi island is a quiet island of about 3000 residents. This island rose to the limelight after it became the location where PETE-TAHARUKI KISIWANI, a Swahili drama that developed a cult-like audience within East Africa was filmed. Early May 2022, I embarked on a solo trip to the island, and was well received by the sights and the people... If you have watched the tv show, you might relate... Gratitude to one Mr. Juma (Jay), a resident who showed me around... In case you have a querry or comment, please feel free to leave one.... Thank you
