Doris and Anthony run a recording studio in Machakos, Kenya. They call their project Studio 5 and it is based in their home.
The room they use as a lounge is also the studio, meeting room and admin office. Just over a year ago, they took me to a building several kilometres from their home where they are working on building an actual studio. They are currently planning a fundraising campaign to get the money together to make their dream come true.
The thing that struck me about these two is their drive. Yawe builds speakers and sells them to help supplement their income. Doris makes jewellery. But all the time, the big vision they are working to is this studio. #inspired.
