The excitement has set in. I have started gathering thoughts and stuff. In order to be sure I can make the most of this opportunity provided to me I have started reading Tanzania: A Lonely planet. I am making a list of stuff to take and places to visit and things to eat. Tanzania seems to be a promising country with so many places to visit that I feel it almost impossible to cover all of them. I am excited about the food as I feel it will be similar to my home country, India. In fact some of the words like chai(tea) and chapati(wheat bread) coincide with my native language. Also, the time difference between Tanzania and India is just three hours which gives me more time to communicate with my family in India. Oops!! Forgot to mention what my blog name means. Those were the first words I came across in Swahili. What they mean?? " Hello(jambo) and Welcome(karibu)".
