Flying to the north part of Tanzania (the area where Mount Kilimanjaro and Serengeti are). Arusha is much different than Dar Es Salaam. Looking forward to a break from the City seeing more of the landscape.
This is a small part of Dar Es Salaam from the air. You can see the difference in the way communities are planned. Most areas not served by water, sewer and sometimes even power.
Buildings are made from concrete blocks. Roof material is often corrugated metal. To get around the city on foot, people walk to the highway and then travel up and down. No sidewalks, so the people are very close to cars as they pass by.
I thank you very much for sharing your experiences with the rest of us PHIs/EHOs. I have enjoyed reading about your experiences very much. I had the opportuntiy to go to Kenya/Tanzania in November and I find myself reliving all of my similar experiences when reading your blog. It is truly an amazing experience and I am glad that so many people are able to get a taste of what life over there is like through your blog. Enjoy the rest of your time there and stay cool (literally).
