Djaaka
Watching Djaaka from Beira performing live at Teatro Avenida in Maputo. Woo!
Month: July 2012
Oranges
The season for oranges is still here and their vivid colour that is scattered all over makes my mouth water. Here in Maputo, one kilo of oranges is 1€ from the lady on the street. I took these photos from the bus on the road to Inhambane. Whenever we stopped, ladies and children would approach us through the windows with fresh fruit, cookies and drinks. Very hard to resist.
Ava & Zacka
Here’s what I’m currently up to. These two are top notch entertainment machines. Sometimes, however, I end up being the one entertaining and then it’s good fun to try to remember stuff I used to love myself as a kid, such as the “connect the dots” game. Best thing ever. “It’s a snail!” Hell yeah it is!
Everything I own
Everything I currently own fits into these bags. It can all be carried by one person. Obviously somebody quite strong as it adds up to 40kg’s. haha.
Kitsch and Religion
The Roman Catholic cathedral here in Maputo always gives me the giggles. Formally named the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception or Catedral de Nossa Senhora da Imaculada Conceição, it is a beautiful and quite impressive white building, crowned by a green and glowing neon cross.
