Meeting with the ambassador
The new Norwegian ambassador in Tanzania, Hanne-Marie Kaarstad came to Zanzibar and she also visited Mnazi Mmoja hospital and Haukeland house last week. All Norwegians working here presented their projects. Jurgita was also presenting the project she’s working on (Hospital Management), ambitions and challenges.
The ambassador also visited Haukeland House (and our apartment:) and the visit was finished with a nice dinner with local food at our rooftop.
The ambassador was clearly impressed by the work that is being done by Haukeland University Hospital in Zanzibar and she showed truly interest in the collaboration between Haukeland and Mnazi Mmoja.
A memorable day for us all!
P.S. And now we know where we’ll celebrate our National Day (17th of May)- the embassy has invited all of us over to Dar Es Salaam (on the mainland) to celebrate.
