About Paula Odhiambo

4 posts · joined 2008-01-12

I'm Kenyan born and bred, but I consider myself an East African. I am passionate about Jesus Christ. Coming to the United States in 2005 made me more aware of my gender and heritage than ever before, and I have realized in the process that I have a love for the women of Africa and the youth in general. I blog at http://peaculiar.com and write articles for a website for African women, Yakuti - http://yakuti.org.
