Muzungu!

Teizeen:

Yesterday, we were on our way to visit a school for a technical assessment in a rural area about 1.5 hours drive from Kisumu. Before we got there, however, we had to stop at another school to drop something off.

As soon as the school children saw our truck rolling into their compound, they spotted Ryan’s white face and ran in a big group to his side of the car, swarming around it, pointing at us, and shouting, “Muzungu! Muzungu!” (Which is the term used for a white person). It was almost as if the young African school kids were the tourists and Ryan was the prime sightseeing attraction.
