Moshi to Mbulu – Local Love Proposals and Chasing Tires with Sticks. Jan 4 Time to get out of Moshi. One day of a return was enough. I said goodbye to my Danish friends at breakfast and caught a dola-dola to make a trip from Moshi to Mbulu. The first stop was Arusha. Arusha is a big city that I did not want to be near, yet have to use it somewhat. There was a crowd of people waiting for...
The Danish Robbed in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania. Jan 3 I went to check my money situation this morning while on the foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and realized I had about $8 in cash on me. I could have made it work and I could have stayed another night and eaten off of that, but it would have been a very fine line and I did not want to have to deal with being $0.50 short for the dola-dola ride...
Marangu: All Business, No Pals. Jan 2 Someone was having loud sex this afternoon just outside of my room. I had to change rooms later in the day because there was no electricity in my room, so I was moved to a different bungalow on the property, and was not within earshot of where I was before. Late in the afternoon, someone was having loud sex again. There seems to be no shyness about that here. Good for the Tanzanians...
Moshi: Happy New Year! Dec 31 – 2015 The circles around the sun happen faster and faster… Here we are again… I stayed pretty close to the hotel today, aside from going to get my phone fixed by the ‘Phone Doctor’ who was really knowledgeable at what he does. I should have gone to him right away rather than poke around in my phone myself and cause more problems that he would also have to fix. It would be nice...
Moshi: A Piece of Meat. Dec 30 Meet Silus: – Silus is from the Massai tribe. His village is 30 km away from Moshi, Tanzania. – There are Maasai people everywhere in Tanzania and many in Kenya. They all speak the same language, which is amazing because there are 100’s of languages in Tanzania alone with all of the different tribes, and yet this one massive tribe across two countries speaks the same language. – His father has five wives. All...
Dar Es Salaam to Moshi: The Long Ride North. Dec 29 It can really screw you up when your phone loses track of time because it is so dead, and you allow it to set itself according to the mobile network you are using. Then when you set your alarm for 05:20 to get to the buses early and everyone else is getting up at the same time it is really confusing. Then you find a clock on the wall...
