Travelblog by Jurgita and Thomas

On Sunday (5^th of October) we went to the capital of Zanzibar (and the birthplace of Queen-singer Freddy Mercury): Stonetown. A beautiful little town, full of small shops, cafes and narrow streets. Big part of it faces the sea, and we spent a few hours just sitting at beach-cafes watching people passing by. We loved it there and we`ll be going there as often as we can!

Stonetown is only six kilometers from Haukeland House, so it`s easy for us to get there. Today we used local transport, called daladala, which basically is a truck that they fill up with as many people as possible… We realized that tuk-tuk in Bangkok is quite safe and luxury compared to daladala here J But it was fun and we are going to take it again.

A few pictures from Stonetown and The city beach below.

Warm greetings from T&J :)
