A letter from Dar es Salaam

I am at Dar es Salaam.
I don' t know the origin of this name.
But don't forget double a 'Dar es Salaaaaaaaam'
Forty four hous in train. No kidding
Chinease people had made this train.
There was not enough water in second class.
I was very dirty in train.
Also, I spent all the money to buy beers. So i was hungry also. haha
Fortunately, I met a korean guy. He has been travelling for 6months.
And a swedish guy. He had travelled Asia for 13months. Now 5months in Africa.
Me, I have been travelling for 35 days, long way to go.

I stay at YWCA hostel. People said the best hostel in Dar.
I think it's not the best, but better.
And it's very cheap. single room 8000won for one day.
So far I have slept in a tent, in a dormitory.
I plan 3days in single room. But nothing to do for 3days.
Anyway, after shower, I was hanging around city.
50% people in the street greet to me.
"Jambo" "Jambo" mean how are you?
"No, I'm not Jambo, I'm Rambo"
No, I didn't say that. I don't want to disappoint them. Just showing Asian smile.
I think I am already hitten by princess disease.
I will go to Zanzibar island at Sunday.
But alone in the beach. It's not interesting
(the Korean guy and swedish guy have gone to find cheaper hostel)
Bye, be happy always.
