Street pictures in Arusha, Tanzania
Those carts are still very common, this one particularly bulky. A stripped or a huge sofa can fit too!
Street vendors, everywhere, borderline annoying...
Another common scenery, women carrying about everything on their head.
Helmets ....baby steps!

Funny? There could be a passenger sitting on that bag...
Amazon style for this pretty girl, a common way to sit on a motorbike taxi.
Streets are busy with little businesses.
Gossipers like everywhere.

Atomic energy…
Mount Meru in the background.
As opposed to some failed countries like South Sudan, there are no submachine guns mounted on pick up trucks in Tanzania. Refreshing.

The portrait on the t-shirt is of the late founding father, Julius Nyerere, still a revered figure in Tanzania.

“Stop noise, work hard, pray hard” and “Taylor gang”? Sometimes these slogans don’t make too much sense. A religious and silent gang? Sure…
My enemies in African towns. The public minibus driver and the tracker don’t care about other road users, they think the road and the surroundings belong to them. My radar is always finely tuned when I come close.

I wonder if this girl knows the meaning of her t-shirt.

Men..at any age?
Helmets are to be discarded after the 1st shock….let’s admire the nice crack on this silver one. Well, baby steps I guess. For years, there were no helmets at all. Then Chinese crap appeared in a shy manner, that is they could be seen anywhere on the motorbike but on heads. Now they are most likely worn on heads but some riders or passengers are still reluctant, especially women with complex or voluminous hairdos.
Artsy way to wear a veil and stunning face I’d say…

Sometimes I get lucky and get contrasted pictures, and I’m not talking about the colors.
Those coaches crisscross the country, always in the most colorful (and fast) way.

When modernism and tradition meet.
A friend with the small load is helping his friend with the bigger load.
How to not load a motorbike!

A Peugeot graveyard, I think the green one is a 203.
