Two of ours, colliding on the equator

Two of ours, from completely different corners of this thing, linking up on the far side of the planet.

Miora and Saiff are meeting up to party in Nairobi this week — two people who, on paper, have no reason to know each other.

In one corner: Miora — Montreal by way of London, ex-Saltpay, one of ours from way back. In the other: Saiff, who went off to build a fintech in Kenya with his own dad. Two totally different chapters of the same strange story, now sharing a table on the equator.

No borders, no respect whatsoever for geography. People meet here, and then somehow meet THERE.

Le monde est minuscule, every single time. This is the whole point of the thing, honestly.

Cause some trouble, you two. And send photos.
