Nyumbani

The house-place, the home. My living situation in Tanzania is rather safi, with a  spacious house all to myself, a bomba (water tap) in my courtyard with plenty of water, privacy, and plenty of room for a garden. To give you a glimpse into my Peace Corps life, I thought I’d just share a few photos.

Me and my big ol' nyumbani

The sitting room and the lovely furniture my village provided for me so I didn't have to use buckets as chairs

My bedroom + "closet"

Hey that's me! In my bedroom
