When I traveled to Tanzania last year Shakira's song Waka Waka was just about the only song you'd hear (with the exception of K'naan's Waving Flag of course). We soon learned that waka waka pretty much means, "do work," and that is what I just did...with my suitcase. With mostly tees and long dresses I'm ready to take on Africa once again, this time I don't think my skills in Kiswalhili will help me, but if it does: jambo South Africa, habari?
I leave at the crack of dawn (muy de la manana -- that one is Spanish if you didn't catch that) and embark on a 30 hour journey to Johannesburg. When we get in we are told we will have a lecture (bleh) and visit a few museums. Pretty unsure about my accommodations for the first week and a half, but hopefully I will have internet and can fill you in on my adventures in Johannesburg!
Asante for reading and kwaheri! (Shout out to my Tanzanian loves!)
So excited for you and miss you something terrible. Feel free to continue the tanzania shoutouts/references. I sorely miss it, you, and everyone we spent it with.
