NEEMA Crafts
One of the first places I was shown in Iringa was a wonderful little place next to the Anglican Church. They mostly manufacture small handycrafts that they later sell to tourists or abroad via the internet. Their stories are the most amazing part of this organization. Most of the people have some type of limiting disability that made it extremely difficult for them to find profitable trades.
Go to the link to find out more about who they are and what they do. I bought a solar panel and some other fine gift items to bring home.

Ruaha National Park


We managed to see almost every animal in this amazing park. The lions were the only ones that were elusive as the abundant impalas were keeping them well fed and lazy somewhere out of view.
