Not very thick (40 pages), but shocking. This book is about trip to Kenya. Kibera is the biggest slum in the country and 40,000 people share 10 latrines. I feel extremely lucky to live in America.

“Pig butchering scam is increasing nowadays; it’s a type of financial fraud where scammers cultivate a long-term romantic relationship with victims, before manipulating them into fake crypto platforms – meaning 'fattening' victims before 'slaughtering' them. I know there is one Korean woman who lost $70,000 due to it. The major origin of scammers is known to be Cambodia.”
