Tanzania

A true experience

12/30/2015

I feel that my last week experience of traveling with my amazing friend Anna Kolodziej, who lives in a Muhuru bay in Kenya and works for doctors world wide, can't really be shared in words so I will keep it short. Anna, you are the best! 
I slept outside under the stars, in a car and on the floor in a house with 50 other people. Showered with a bucket and in Victoria Lake. Traveled with all possible vehicles filled with impossible amounts of people, got lost and left behind at the border and saved by a motor taxi. I lived with a local family, walked around in traditional clothes and tried to communicate in Swahili. I got drunk and ill (most likely connected..) and got stuck on an island.
Sadness and happiness. A dying patient and a new born. A traditional birthday and a traditional funeral. Exciting, intense and beautiful. Amazing people! I miss my new family now already!

I was there to explore, create and exchange and I would like to share my experiences and thoughts with you! I will write in English which is not my first language so please forgive me my grammar and spelling mistakes!
