After a quick three-week break at home, I’m back in Tanzania for a second semester studying abroad! After visiting Zanzibar for two weeks I’ll be making my way to the mainland where I’ll be studying “wildlife conservation and political ecology” in Arusha through SIT study abroad. At home I had just enough time to see my family and friends on Bainbridge Island, celebrate the holidays, eat all of my favorite American foods (mainly cheese), head up to Bellingham to taunt my friends in real school, share a birthday beer with Jocelyn Maher on her 21st, and have a reunion with Brooke and Jordan “Jay-Z” Zanmiller…and then I got to head off again...precisely when I was getting sick of the cold.
(Me and Joce celebrate her 21st in style, while Piper (taking the picture) celebrates with tea)
(Jay-Z comes to Bainbridge!)
Much love, Becky (or Bucky, as the Swahili people pronounce it. Maybe I should stick to my Swahili name, Rahima.)
