Greetings From Mozambique

I'm living aboard a train these days travelling through Africa and it is the ultimate adventure. We started in Johannesburg, South Africa 3 days ago, spent a day in the tiny Kingdom of Swaziland, and we will be here in Mozambique for another day before heading onward for 13 more days and 4 more countries. The 56 other people on the train with me are die hard travellers and I love listening to their travel stories. I'm like a beginner compared to them. It's like a convention of travel addicts all aboard one train for 15 days.
It may be tough keeping in touch. I'm borrowing a hotels wifi today, but I've been told that as we go further north it will be tougher to get connections. I've already told my brother not to worry if I drop off the earth for 3 weeks .
I'll be in touch when I can - in the meantime - Happy Trails to you.
Or as they say in Swaziland - "Soubono" which means "I see you." to which the other person replies "Yeahbo" or "I see you too." It's the local version of "hello" and "hello to you too."
