the first person i met when i arrived was the last person i saw when i left. this is Mageni our company driver. he was a good driver and never got me into an accident or killed. i am very grateful for that.
we spent a lot of time together while i was in country and we had a few crazy experiences together. like the time we were in Arusha and we were looking for a the only place where you could buy plastic containers for retail. i needed to see what they had for the vanilla sugar i wanted to bring to market. there wasn't a sign advertising the business and when we called for directions the clerk shouted and abused Mageni to the point i was cringing. i didn't even understand what she was saying but whatever it was she wasn't saying it nicely. i told Mageni afterwards we would never need to go there again. with his help i learned a few more swahili words and then immediately forgot them.
my smile says it all. i am ready to go. Mageni was always smiling and i love that this is my last photo from Tanzania.
