Vi har aldrig rigtigt naaet at fortaelle om arbejdet hernede, men her skal jeg forsoege at fortaelle lidt om det. Vi starter heeeelt forfra, og kommer til sidst til, at vi lige nu er I tvivl om, om ansaettelsen mon fortsaetter. Samarbejdet med chefen Inayat er gaaet i haarknude og vi ved faktisk pt ikke, om det kan loeses… Arbejdet: Hjemmefra vidste vi jo som bekendt ikke meget om det hernede. Vi forventede at arbejdet mest var i en is-bar og en smule nogle andre steder, som Inayat ogsaa har. Da vi kom fik vi umiddelbart anvist Coffee Shop og Bread Shop som vaerende stederne, der var brug for hjaelp. 'Helt ok,' taenkte vi, for vi kunne godt se at der var nok at tage fat paa. Den foerste uge gik med at se is-baren ogsaa ... read more

The "Coca-cola Mountain Kilimanjaro stands at 19,340 feet and is the highest free-standing mountain in the world. It has three high peaks namely Shira (the oldest volcano peak), Mawenzi (erupted after shira) and Kibo (the highest peak). For the twenty thousand or more mountain climbing tourists who visit Kilimanjaro each year, it is apparent that it is not something they want to do by themselves. It is not possible to climb to any of the peaks without guides. I'm proud to say I'm one of a few people who has braved this mountain route (Marangu) 4 times and Machame once. 3 climbs in 10 years feels righteous. Well the last climb was more than 5 years ago. I climbed the Machame route with a group of 7 German climbers. (I used to be a travel and ... read more
