Our Tanzanian Experiment: Zanzibar
http://tanzania-medicine.blogspot.com/2009/04/zanzibar.html
Friday, April 24, 2009. SO i am skipping over last weekends excursion into Masailand and will save that for a Sunday posting. I hopped on the Dar Express for Dar es Salam yesterday morning at 6 am! I caught the last ferry to Zanzibar and am currently typing at an internet cafe (I have 11:30:00 left to write before my money runs out.). It is beautiful here, and the kiswahili is a bit different but I am getting along fine. I have done well in becoming conversant! November 14, 2009 at 12:56 PM.

Our Tanzanian Experiment: Easter Ride
http://tanzania-medicine.blogspot.com/2009/04/easter-ride.html
Sunday, April 12, 2009. Easter Sunrise service was at the Simonson's this morning. They have been working in the NE region of Tanzania for many years, and built a home here in the early 1970's. They have a beautiful large home fashioned after the traditional Masai boma- so it is a round and very open building with an inner circle within the outer wall. An amazing gathering area within. But I didn't know I was whiter than white. Can you differentiate my t-shirt from my skin? Mbutwai and Kimane stopped by ...

Our Tanzanian Experiment: Out with Captain Fresh Legs
http://tanzania-medicine.blogspot.com/2009/04/out-with-captain-fresh-legs.html
Monday, April 13, 2009. Out with Captain Fresh Legs. Another national holiday yesterday! So Bryant and I decided it would be good to mountain bike daily. Sounded good at first. Then we invited Mat Bailey with us (Captain Fresh Legs). We had been going up hills for 4 days and invited this crazy Aussie for another spin. Love biking with him, for sure, but our reserves were low this time. And he hadn't biked in several days. The locals borrowed my bike and we talked with the kids. Then we heard about a ...

Our Tanzanian Experiment: A little bit of everything
http://tanzania-medicine.blogspot.com/2009/04/water-water-has-been-scarce-in.html
Saturday, April 11, 2009. A little bit of everything. Water has been scarce in Arusha/IlBuro/Ngaramtoni area. The short rain season provided less than expected, and now the long rain season is late in appearing. We have just now entered the rains, and it is quite nice. The dust has settled down, making walks and mountain biking much easier on the eyes and lungs. There are powerful rains for a few hours/minutes and then cooler temps and beautiful sunshine. Maasae Girls Lutheran Secondary School. From nume...

Our Tanzanian Experiment: March 2009
http://tanzania-medicine.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2009. I took Tuesday morning off to work on public health and orient a new internal medicine doc to the area. As I returned home in the morning Mbutuai and his brother Kimane stopped by! We had some chai and discussed Mbutuai lookin. The new IM doc (Jose) was here last year for 5 weeks. He is originally from Argentina and I will be working with him this afternoon at the medicine clinic. Tomorrow we will be grilling out: Nitapika njema nyama (I will cook good meat)! I unplugged from the...

Our Tanzanian Experiment: February 2009
http://tanzania-medicine.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 27, 2009. How is the day? The day is good! On safari the lions were amazing, although I did not realize what a brutal life they must lead until I looked through our pictures and saw how banged up they get! Needless to say, you can see Charlie's response! Today at Selian I worked with the pediatric team again. We have one patient with a kidney disease (nephrotic syndrome) who we just aren't seeming to help. We are hoping to treat schiztosomiasis,. It is a best guess right now anyway. ...

http://tanzania-medicine.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 27, 2009. It is January 27 and I am looking around our apartment and feel overwhelmed. Charlie is now sleeping and this would be a good time to clean/pack/organize papers and belongings but all I feel like doing is taking a breather. We have been preparing for so long and now that it is getting so close (1 week! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bryant (Roommate) Carlson's blog. It is January 27 and I am looking around our apart.
