Tanzania Day 52 - 54 - Jambiani

Our last day in Paje was just a chilled out day on the beach and an early night watching a film.

On Monday we moved further down the east coast around 15 minutes to Jambiani. Our new hotel called Kimte is right on the beach and luckily as we were their only guests at the time of arrival we got a free room upgrade so no shared bathroom 😀

It was a short walk down from our new hotel to Coral Rocks (which is the live music night we also went to last monday) so we arrived early to see it in the daylight and to try their food. Gem's work friend who had been inspired to holiday in Tanzania because of gem's Instagram came to meet us for dinner, she had been on Kilimanjaro when the fires happened and actually had to evacuate her camp and run back down the mountain at a half way point to avoid it! But her and her sister both still made it to the top.. fair play!

After they left we had a drink with a German and a Sudanese guy we had met in the day who were both moving into our hotel the next day. Right after we finished talking about how crazy the conspiracy theory that 5g masts cause Corona is (the German guy was a believer) we met a Serbian PhD student who worked for Ericsson as a 5g specialist!! We spent most of our evening with Djorje the Serbian and also bumped into a Spanish girl from our last hotel Carla who introduced us to an Irish and Moroccan couple who lived in Dubai. We spent the rest of the evening chatting with them as the place was quieter than the week before but still had a great night.

We had expected Tuesday to be a write off and after getting home so late we both just relaxed all day. Although weirdly in our hotel bar today I noticed a girl with a London accent and turns out she's from Wembley and lives about 5 minutes from us by North Wembley station, it's a small world!Read more
