http://tanzanialaura.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Adventures in Tanzania with the Millennium Villages Project. Wednesday, May 25, 2011. Here we go again! Just when you thought I was starting to get cozy in New York City, I'm off again, this time to Tanzania for three months! Here's where I'll be! Not much of this has sunk in yet, aside from the stuffed backpack, loaded Kindle, and bottle of malaria pills on the floor of my bedroom. Still, I've managed to relish a few exciting Tanzania moments already. To name a few:. Love to all, and be in touch!

Laura in Tabora: Teksi!
http://tanzanialaura.blogspot.com/2011/06/teksi.html
Adventures in Tanzania with the Millennium Villages Project. Monday, June 6, 2011. All this means that we spend the majority of our days (and our money) in taxis, mostly at a standstill. A flat tire didn't stop Fred from getting us to the giraffe center in Nairobi! Saira might win the award for taxi conversationalist. I’m not sure how she does it, but she can carry on for an hour and a half by simply stating the obvious. “Ah, furniture – 30% off! 8221; “That is a big hotel – many rooms! Hannah: “Ha...

Adventures in Tanzania with the Millennium Villages Project. Friday, July 22, 2011. Or, what I'm actually doing in Tanzania. This blog entry contains pictures of cute, smiling African children. Eye-rollers and cynics, be advised.

Laura in Tabora: June 2011
http://tanzanialaura.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Adventures in Tanzania with the Millennium Villages Project. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. The Wazungu of Tabora. We’re a strange sight in this part of the world – light-skinned women in cropped pants, Chaco sandals and ponytails, simultaneously looking seriously busy and hopelessly lost. We strike most people as pretty ridiculous. Nearly everyone shouts, “Hey, mzungu! 8221; as they ride past on their bikes. Children squeal, “How ah YOU? Vendors charge us double without blinking. Oh, and that bit about the s...

Laura in Tabora: The Long Road to Tabora
http://tanzanialaura.blogspot.com/2011/06/long-road-to-tabora.html
Adventures in Tanzania with the Millennium Villages Project. Thursday, June 9, 2011. The Long Road to Tabora. Now that we’ve been safe and sound in Tabora for a solid five days, I’m finally ready to talk about our epic (and traumatic) trek from Dar es Salaam with a healthy dose of perspective. Ticket Purchase, Take 1:. 8221; We sought shelter in the Sai Baba ticket office, where the driver helped us buy three tickets to Tabora for 60,000 shillings (around $45) each. Ticket Purchase, Take 2:. The next mor...

Laura in Tabora: Man plans, Africa laughs
http://tanzanialaura.blogspot.com/2011/07/man-plans-africa-laughs.html
Adventures in Tanzania with the Millennium Villages Project. Tuesday, July 5, 2011. Man plans, Africa laughs. Carrianne warned me on my very first week to remove the words ‘’plan’’ and ‘’expect’’ from my vocabulary. For anyone who has ever met me (or anyone else who is type A, a. Or a Budzyna), you know that this is no easy task. No more than ten minutes! 8217;’ they reassured me. 8217;’ I shouted, half-jokingly, as I left them to their feast. This maneuver can be likened to trying to get your whole clan...
