Comment: Ich habe meinen Freund Marek hier in Moshi wiedergetroffen, den ich in Namibia kennengelernt hatte. War eine schöne und lustige Zeit. Marek fuhr von Marocco bis Gambia und dann über Mali nach Togo und von Gabun durch den Congo bis Tanzania. Ich traf ihn in Moshi, fast in der Mitte Afrika´s. Wir radelten gemeinsam nach Arusha wo wir als Couchsurfer bei sehr gastfreundlichen großfamilien wohnten. Mehr schreibe ich jetzt nicht, sondern später oder in meinem Buch. also bleibt gespannt.
