You know you've been in Africa too long when…
Funny what seven weeks in Kenya will do to you. ;)
I’m going to miss this place!!
- You start referring to flashlights as torches without thinking.
- You start pronouncing the “e” in zebra like “eh”.
- When asked what you do, you say “I’m at University.”
- You have to stop and think about whether to call it soccer or football.
- You have a minimum of three cups of tea a day on a good day.
- Your dislike of baboons increases because they came in one morning when no one was around and stole the jar of sugar for the aforementioned tea.
- “Asante” comes to your mind more quickly than “thank you” in some situations.
- You start to wonder how you ever lived without Maasai blankets.
- You know the conversion rates for shillings, euros and pounds into dollars without looking.
- You start to wish America had switched to the Metric system.
- You find an inch-long beetle wrapped in the toilet paper, and are just grateful it wasn't bigger.
- You know when you’re almost back to camp without even looking up because you recognize the bumps in the road.
