Safari Highlights From East Africa Pt. II: Tanzania

This Safari Highlights Armchair Travel program is presented in two parts – feel free to attend one or both!

In Swahili, “safari” means “journey” or “travel.” Come travel with Suanne Williams-Lindgren as she ‘safari’s through the Eastern African countries of Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania to meet some amazing locals and experience the countries’ cultures and wildlife.

Part 2. Tanzania, especially the Serengeti. Come learn about two of the oldest remaining tribes in the world! The Hadzabe are one of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes in the world, and their people speak one of the three “click” languages in East Africa. UNESCO has categorized their language as “vulnerable” due to their small population. We will also meet people of the Datooga Nilotic ethnic group from Tanzania. We’ll see the Ngorongoro Crater and immerse ourselves in viewing the wildlife that lives there as well as in the Serengeti!

This program is part of our Armchair Travel series, where neighbors take us on grand photography tours of their travels in distant lands. Free and open to the public. For questions or directions, call the library at 207-865-3307.
