Meet Eddy, Walking Between Shores

I’m Eddy from Awelo, a farmer and a watcher. I put seeds in the ground and watch them grow. I love stories and the unexpected grace they carry. And as a child of the Nile, the waters keep calling my name wherever I go.

The water is literal, y’know – the stories of Lake Victoria and the little sprawl of Awelo, Siaya, the hood in western Kenya that raised me and first taught me home, belonging, stories, and God. But it is a metaphor too. Life has carried me far from those shores, so this is my place of returning, where I go back to the version of myself that feels most at home.

Here I step away from Clark the cleric and C. E. Ohanga the scholar. Just Eddy, my late Dad’s pet name for me – a curious, reflective storyteller, gathering stories somewhere between home and horizon.

Please, come; let’s share what we’ve gathered along the way.
