Travelogues Tanzania

Thursday, 20.09. 5.30 am Ines and I are already sitting in the long-distance bus to Arusha. You can basically compare it to 'Flixbus & Co', but it is reduced to African...

Saturday, 08/25/2018 Women alone in Africa. Typical woman: you have an idea in mind, how to implement it is secondary. Annika, Juliet, and I read something about cave paintings...

The partially 'exposed ring anchor'

Once again we have to get up early, this time we are driven by a school bus, as our trusty driver Richard takes the public bus back to Tunduru in the morning. We fly back to Dar...

Our earliest wake-up time so far: we are supposed to be picked up for the airport at 4:15, so we might have a late-night drink beforehand. The rickety 20-person bus is a little...

After Mafia Island, we will go to Dar Es Salaam, where we want to organize and plan our next stage. In Tanzania, we have always been bound to a guide and it is not recommended...

After incredibly breathtaking (and sometimes a bit scary 😅) 6 days, we are ending our safari. We have experienced and seen so much that we couldn't imagine beforehand. Madness!...

After a day in Arusha, it really starts: our 6-day safari. We still can't quite believe that we are really in Africa! We start in Tarangire National Park. As soon as we arrive,...

Back in paradise with a special promise.

Party

Basically, I am against most establishments that offer the opportunity to pet, touch and feed animals, as these are often just a means to an end and the end is: money!!! That's...

"You can have all the wealth and success in the world, but if you're not healthy, you have nothing." (Steven Adler). The last few days in Zanzibar were mixed. Madlin wasn't...

The Serengeti National Park was the former home of the Maasai, who appropriately named this area the “endless plain”. And yes, that describes the Serengeti very accurately. A...

While Jens and Tüte unfortunately have to fly home again, we have decided to treat ourselves to 10 days on Mafia Island. The underwater world is said to be a dream here and in...

I am sitting here. Staring ahead. A thousand thoughts in my head. But how should I describe it.. Flerimo Hospital. 10am. 4 nurses on duty (as I learn, there is practically no...

And my journey through Africa continues! This time it's Tanzania! Tanzania is located in eastern Africa and is governed by a female president. This country shows itself to be...

Oft ist man bei Crowdfundings etwas skeptisch, erst recht, wenn das Geld nach Afrika fliessen soll. Deshalb haben wir uns aufgemacht und uns selber ein Bild vom Mulimuli-Projekt...

Weekend on the farm We visited two volunteers who work on a farm run by an English couple. About 40 minutes drive from our current place of residence. Somewhere in the middle of...

We ended up in Sansibar over New Year's. The five of us set off on December 28th by bus to Dar es Salaam. 11 hours drive, no air conditioning, no toilet, and a more than wild...

On the way to the north, we take a guided tour of a spice farm, then continue almost all the way to the north, our hotel is glamping. You can go directly into the sea here, the...

In order not to have to drive 7 hours to Dar Es Salaam the next day, we head to Morogoro after 2 days in the national park, where we stay overnight as a stopover. Once we...

I am enjoying the time, but sometimes homesickness creeps in. I have been spending many days in Africa now, living a completely different life than in Germany. It is...

Thursday, 18.10.2018 According to definition, farewell is a separation from someone or something. But I think farewell is much more. It is also the conclusion of a certain,...
