Before the walk
Know the rhythm before you book
I build the walk in layers so you can follow the story from the first introduction to the final conversation. We begin with context and wallet setup, move into real transactions, and finish with the wider questions around savings, remittances, and community learning.

Every stop in order
The route from arrival to wrap-up
I designed the walk as a sequence. You begin with context, move into actual purchases and services, and finish with time to ask better questions about what you observed.
Stop 1
Adams Greenhouse
Meet-up and wallet setup
I welcome you at Adams Greenhouse, share a short safety briefing, and introduce the walk. If needed, we set up a Lightning wallet together so the day feels practical from the very first stop.
Stop 2
Chapati and tea stand
Food vendor in Soweto West
We stop at a local food stand where you can buy a small snack using Lightning and compare the flow with cash and M-Pesa. It is one of the clearest ways to feel why fast, low-cost payments matter.
Stop 3
Neighbourhood essentials store
General shop or duka
We move into a daily-use merchant setting where you see how basic household goods can be bought with sats and how a shopkeeper thinks about turnover, pricing, and stability.
Stop 4
Barber or salon
Services stop
A service business changes the rhythm of the walk. Here, I show you how appointments, repeat customers, and tipping can all move through the same payment rails.
Stop 5
Youth centre or marketplace space
Community hub conversation
This stop slows the pace and gives us room for the deeper story: remittances, savings, education, and the trust that helps new tools become useful in community life.
Stop 6
Local cafe
Cafe wrap-up
We close with a debrief, space for questions, and an optional Lightning donation to a local initiative. My goal is to leave you with context, not just novelty.
