Zambia

Hello all,

I'm not sure if anyone reads this blog anymore, particularly since I've been extremely inconsistent in my updates.

I'm in Zambia for one week. I was lucky enough to meet a pair of locals, who're 21 and bored (no school right now). They've decided to show me around Zambia in the way that locals see it. Meaning, they've taken me to small rural towns, and cooked me traditional Zambian cuisine.

On the 26th, I'm going to find my way into Zimbabwe (the transportation over the border is yet to be determined). I'm joining a new tour group in Zimbabwe that will take me North to Nairobi. Unfortunately, the fighting in Kenya does not seem to be ending any time soon, so I may have to divert myself into Uganda or Rwanda for some time. I'm looking into volunteer opportunities in these two countries, as I'm not completely ready to come back to Canada just yet. Also, I really want to contribute some more as I've received so much from the continent of Africa.

Well, that's it for now. I bought a new camera, but I'm unable to upload the pictures, so this will have to wait until I can figure out how to extract the pics from the memory card.

With love,
Niv
