Because Moshi is not that close to KFI we had to go by bus. It was a 2 hour drive on a bumpy road in a bus which was almost falling apart.
Once we were there we had a nice lunch, pilau and rice with kuku. During lunch I was eating with my left hand. One of the students asked me, why I was eating with left instead of eating with right, what is a tradition here in Tanzania. I explained to her that I'm left handed and I'm not able to eat with my right hand ;-). But from now on I'll eat with my right hand.
After lunch we had a meeting with a Dutch man who had some relations with albino's. The students had a small interview with him and two albino's. The conversation was hard to understand for use because they had to speak Swahili and our Swahili is not perfect yet.
The students of KFI had a hard talk with the albino's because they want to get their benefit out of the report the students are making. So they tried to explain that there was no financial benefit possible, but more a social benefit. It wasn't as easy as we expected. We still have a long way to go. A lot of work has to be done to finish this project.
During our way back we had just a pleasant ride as we had in the morning. We can't feel our asses anymore, but we are still happy and smiling. Five minutes ago we had a great meal, chipsmayai! So now we are ready for a good night of sleep.
Usiku mwema!!!
