2008 Homestay Survey

survey_kat&luka

Last weekend we visited the village where this year's Houghton in Tanzania students will be spending their 8-day home stay. Their are two roads into the village: one is rotting and not suitable for our truck. The other takes a number of switchbacks to climb the escarpment behind Mbeya, and should be passable in March.

The village has a beautiful view of Mbeya Peak and is inhabited by Wasafwa farmers cultivating corn, coffee, and beans.
