Howdy again. I thought I ought to write a little considering I'm about to begin phase two of the African saga of which I've chosen to be a part. I just wrapping up a one-week break which involved some luxuriously lazy days in Zanzibar, seeing dolphins, napping, buying scarves, napping, eating, meeting a rapper who also sells seafood during Ramadan, meeting a guy with a monkey named Cobra (never did figure out what the guy's name was), napping, and throwing up in public three times in one day (a word of advice--avoid the lethal combination of too much fresh pineapple and choppy ferry rides after five hours of sleep). Tomorrow I go to Arusha, and soon I will start interviewing Maasai about breastfeeding.
Sadly, now that we've moved from the campus dorms to host families and my host family live off campus, it's a lot more difficult finding times to run when I won't either get mugged or get hyperthermia from the heat. But I keep trucking--hopefully things will improve in the field.
As Karen mentioned, I am sending out periodic emails--if interested, let me know and I can shoot some your way. I hope the season is going well for all of you and I can't wait to meet the new folks in the spring.
Take care,
Katie
