Holiday on the Road! Highlights
I am finally back in Lagos after a 14-day road trip across Southern and Eastern Nigeria. Among other things, the highlights of my trip are:
- watching my perfect sun set in Nigeria and getting in on camera!
- hit by a chimp in what he thought was a throw-catch game (luckily for me it was squishy coco-yam and not a stone!)
- waking up in the middle of lush green forest on christmas day
- finally getting to eat whole roasted fish like the one I scrumptiously enjoyed in Abuja when I first arrived in Nigeria
- drinking fresh palm wine (like our toddy in Kerala)
- watching a Nigerian hip hop artist-Tuface-live in concert
- staying with lovely host families who showered us with their warmth, food and protective care
- an excellent view of the entire Calabar christmas carnival (called Africa's biggest street party!)
- eating a three-course buffet dinner at a top hotel for FREE
- managing to squeeze in work with two GIVE member organizations
