Now I am in Tanzania

Hamjambo!

Hi. I am writing this from Tanzania.

I arrived at the airport around 3p.m. on 25th. We have already spent 4 days here in Tanzania.
Now the rainy season is over, and it is said that now is the best season to visit Tanzania. It isn't too hot.

Dar es Salaam, which is the largest city in Tanzania, has many hotels, shops, good roads, and also very nice beach. You may see sharks around some beach, so it is dangerous to swim there, but the sea is very beautiful. (I guess the sea in the Zanzibar islands must be much more beautiful.)

Since we arrived here, we saw many Japanese used cars which have many Japanese letters on the bodies. It made me feel very strange. I heard one story about these. One Japanese happend to take a local bas here in Dar es Salaam, and the bus was the same bas which he used to use when he was a little boy to go to his kindergarden every day.

From next week, the Swahili training will start again, but now I am a bit relaxed.

I'll write again.

Tutaonana tena

Good luck with your transition to life in Tanzania. I'm sure it will be filled with strange revelations, frustrations, and wonderful moments, all at once.

Hi. Thanks for your comments. I couldn't manage to write and upload photoes so far. It takes long time to do one thing on the computer.... So far I am fine and enjoy my life here.
Take care
