The Artist, The President and The Football Team

Dodoma
... fijn maar simpel hotelletje gebleven, en heb ik gezwommen in het zwembad van een ander, duur hotel. De mensen in Dodoma waren opvallend relaxed en vriendelijk! Veel leuke praatjes gemaakt. En de blanken DIE ik er zag, leken er ...

I'm back in town again due to more confusion from SPW TZ - I was told that there would be a monthly meeting this weekend, but it was changed to next week at the last minute, by which time I was already in town. But I'm going to stay for a few days ...
The Trip That Broke the Hartsel Sketchiometer

Dusty Streets Of Dodoma
Supose to be the capital, you would of thought it! I used this purely as a transit town to break up the trip to Mwanza and it id not even worthy of ...
Njombe
We came to Njombe by a small bus - like the saint's breadbox, on a 5 1/2 hr journey that takes 2 hours by car apparently. haha. Njombe is a fair bit colder and wetter than Iringa, I guess you'd expect that at nearly 2000ft above ...
18th Birthday in TZ
Just a quick one for now. My 18th on Saturday was insane. Starting off with class until 2:30pm as usual, though we had a project in pairs going to random places, and asking for info in Swahili. Krista and I got sent to bus station which was fun. ...
Nyanyembe - planning
Back in Iringa for the day with Claire and Jo, as Anitha has been away filling out more forms for uni for the week and only gets back today. Thus, I have been staying in Claire's village Muwimbi with her and her partner Adella - which has been nice to ...

The next norning we headed towards Tanzania, and we planned to get over the boarder and than some. But the good thing about backpacking is that plans change every second, and all of a sudden you are heading somewhere else. After sleeping a bit late we ...
Kili
... only option seemed to be climbing Kili with two Dutch medical students, for whom it had always been the goal of their internships to Tanzania. For anyone visiting Tanzania, there a re a lot of nice alternatives to the big name parks of Serengeti, ...
Dodoma
... . The bus was sent back for Pat and Katie to take them shopping but it was too late. They had already gone. Fortunately Dodoma is a bit lacking on the shopping side although apparently they found a little helper who took them round what there was. When we ...
Persistance pays, Dr. Jake and a big snake!
Back in dirty, dusty Njombe on a slow internet again..... but hey its town and Ive just gorged myself on a big greasy chips kuku (chicken) and caught up on volunteer crack so Im feeling all good in the hood right now. After some crazily good party ...
