Mozambique

Surprise! I'm in Mozambique! Long story short, six of us decided to take advantage of where we are and explore another country in southern Africa. Since the school is on holiday and camp just ended, it was a perfect time for a little getaway, and the flight & bus tickets were insanely cheap. And because of the insane exchange rate here, food and accommodation is really cheap too. You can get a full meal including a drink for less than three dollars, and the food here is really good! We are currently in this place called Tofo, a pretty secluded untouched beach area on the coast of the Indian Ocean. It is honestly one of the most amazing places I have ever seen in my life. There are a few hostels, two bars, and a little village marketplace area. We leave tomorrow morning for Maputo, the capital of Mozambique, where we will stay for about a day and a half, and then it's back to Muizenberg. If anyone is ever in South Africa, I HIGHLY recommend taking a few days to travel to Tofo - it is well worth it. That's all for now - gotta go enjoy the rest of my short time in Mozambique!

(Thankfully they had an internet cafe here, otherwise I don't know how I would survive!)
