Arriving in Iringa

"Iringa." Wikipedia. Web. 11 Sep 2010.  .

What will Iringa be like? We really had no idea. It is funny when you move to a place cold turkey. I had one picture on wikipedia, and a small blurb in the Lonely Planet which was my reference point for Iringa.  Luckily, Iringa turned out to be even BETTER than expected!

Beautiful flowering Jacaranda trees line the streets. There is a bustling food market in the center of town where women wearing colorful kangas sit atop mountains of vegetables.   The city is surrounded by beautiful hills and incredible rock formations.  It is home to extremely kind people.  And perhaps best of all, it is not super hot and humid.
