Robert Bonet is a 39 year old photographer/photojournalist from Barcelona, Spain. A frequent visitor to Kenya, Bonet moved to Nairobi in September 2020 to advance his career.  
"I decided to make a calendar for 2021 to document some of my best candid photos. Each photo has a story to tell from my days as a social worker to working as a photojournalist". Bonet tells KenyaBuzz. 
The calendar is available in 3 languages:  Catalan, Spanish and English.
