I’m missing my family a lot and they are missing me, especially my oldest son. He’s asked me to never again go away without him, and I want to honor his request at least until he’s older and at least when I’m going to be away for this long. Although when I explained what I was doing he told me he wanted to be a lawyer, too.
In between interviews, we had lunch at the “Salt and Pepper Food Court,” which is a buffet restaurant that sells takeaway food downstairs. We bought our lunch downstairs and ate at the tables. It’s close to the area that in Kenya I’d call “the stage” where all the mini-buses wait for passengers, and also to the Staboek market, so it’s a great place for watching a commotion.
After our interviews, we went to an event at the University of Guyana to recognize International Women’s Day and hosted by Professor Bibian Isoto. Bibian is originally from Uganda and was dressed kienyeji (“traditionally”—kind of) and knew a little bit of Swahili. One of the other professors knew quite a bit more—although he was Guyanese, he had spent some time in TZ.
