Stesheni

Station.

Although the Dodoma-Dar train itself appears to be very punctual, I had some hours to wait in Dodoma before I could board for the return journey.

I found a bar where I could take a work call about a challenging project. It was made doubly challenging by a screeching TV and women interrupting to ask whether I love them. Later on social media I saw a video of a man in China losing his mind due to noise in a train carriage, and I sympathised fully.

After boarding I donned my puffer jacket against the air conditioning’s polar vortex and settled in for the journey back to Dar es Salaam.
