Eaten by Elephants
Paul has traveled to Botswana on some kind of tech internship. He’s been writing about his sundry experiences there. I’ve always dreamed of doing a Geekcorps-type posting, so I’ve been reading his site with interest. Today he writes about the food:
Natalie, my American roommate, observed last week “You know, years from now, I’m never going to tell anyone ‘Back in Botswana, I ate the best X’”.I was hard pressed to disagree with her. The supermarkets here are well-stocked, nearly what we’re used to back home, and when bought with care the food is wholesome and healthy. But, I swear to Vishnu, it’s dull.
I’m pretty sure I met Paul at one of the blogger meetups.
