Letter Four from Tanzania
Salama! The tide is high this morning, and the waves are crashing on the beach outside my bungalow. Zanzibar has been a wonderful host, and the Seaweed Center has been a perfect locale for the students this past week.
Letter Five from Tanzania
Zima! The unreal teal and blue waters of Zanzibar are not looking as inviting to me this afternoon.
Letter Three from Tanzania–Zanzibar!
Salama! Zanzibar!!! Even the name is exotic. The color of the water here defies description. Heavenly turquoise? Sea foam dream? Impossibly deep salty azure? Like I said, words don’t do it justice.

Letter Two from Tanzania
Mambo! Insects humming over elephant and lion dung provide the soundtrack for this letter. If you were sitting beside me, you’d seen the long open expanse of the Serengeti plains.
Letter One from Tanzania, 2015
Hamjambo from Tanzania! I’m back in Africa, although it feels strange to say ‘back’ in Africa. From the moment I arrived, it felt in my heart like I’d never left.
