Moshi, Tanzania
Ah, the sweet escape of a charming café. As I sit here, sipping on a cappuccino, the gentle hum of my laptop provides a comforting backdrop to the bustling afternoon. For the past few days, I’ve been immersed in the digital world, meticulously sorting through years of photos. With a decent internet connection at my hostel, I finally managed to download my Google Photos archive and embark on this daunting task.
Progress is slow but steady. I’ve managed to categorize all my photos up until the end of 2023 into daily folders. Now comes the more challenging part: tackling 2024 and organizing all of them by location. It's a labor of love, but one that will undoubtedly pay off in the long run.
Today, Moshi decided to throw a curveball. A widespread power outage forced me to seek refuge in a café with reliable electricity. Luckily, I stumbled upon the delightful Union Café, a haven of calm amidst the chaos. While it lacked internet, at least I could charge my depleted devices.
My brief escape from the hostel also provided an opportunity to capture some street scenes. Unfortunately, the joy of photography was quickly overshadowed by the relentless pursuit of eager salesmen. It seems as though every white person is a walking ATM in this part of the world. The situation has worsened compared to my previous visits, and it's disheartening to see Tanzania following Kenya's footsteps in this regard.
On a personal note, my neck is aching, and a massage sounds like pure bliss. However, the fear of being scammed is holding me back. For now, it's time to pay the 5,000 TZS cappuccino bill and head back to the hostel.
I've decided to give Digikam another shot for photo management. Despite some initial hiccups with importing from Google Photos, I'm hopeful that it will be the right tool for the job. I'll experiment with other features over the next few days.
As the day winds down, I'm eager to share more about my Moshi adventures, including photos from my stroll. But for now, it's time to relax and recharge. Stay tuned for more updates!
