nicola and felicity and two of their students. these are two of my good brit friends who were in tanzania doing a photo- journalism project. they have gone to several different countries and taught photography classes to street kids, then asking them to make a photodocumentary of their lives. the kids get to see the other countries through each others' eyes and learn about many other countries in a language-less, equalizing way. it was an amazing project and i was excited to see the finished product. these two girls were especially excited about their project and hung their photos-the first they've ever had-all over the wall.
the ugly side of tanzania is the trash. most people there litter and think nothing of it. and then drink out of and bathe in the trashy river. it makes you realize how global of a perspective we really have to take in preserving the future of our earth.
this is a dalla dalla, the public trans- portation mini-buses that cost a quarter to take. they cram them to the brim with appx 18 people fitting inside each and hanging out the doors. they are quite an experience. you are guaranteed to have an overwhelmingly sweaty and stinky experience and you might get a baby handed to you if you happen to have a seat.
