Master of shoemaking, now teaching apprentices

- Since 1982
- English, Swahili
I've worked in shoemaking since 1982. I learned from my older brother and passed what I could on to 840 apprentices.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I'm learning the guitar.
I never expected anything in return, but a kind word always makes my day.
More about Macharia
Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
