Visa 2 Dance in Tanzania, weekend adventures!


















Our weekend started out with a concert, and some of the dancers did a short choreography to promote visa 2 dance. Berit and Kari is enjoying the entertainment.


















The guys in "best friends" did a crazy and fantastic break/hip hop routine.



















And these guys did a really great contemporary routine. Both groups had made the choreography themselves. They did really good! 



















Everybody enjoyed the music and espcially the kids where dancing all night.



















Saturday morning we went on a "bike reality tour" around some areas in Dar.



















We had a really great guide who taught us a lot of things during the day:
- How the markets work.


























- How you do take away coffe, Dar style.


























- What you have with your coffee



















- which looks like this when it's done. 


























- How you grind the coffee


























- And last but not least, tasting. It was the best coffee and caramel ever!



















We visited a house where this very sweet lady made beautiful carpets of straws. They dyed the staws with henna flowers from their own backyard.



















Here we got tea and chapati, typical local food.



















Nice and crowdy inside:)



























This lady served as a doctor for the village. People came to her with their problems and she had a garden full of fresh herbs which she treated them with.



















We got a little taste.



















We learned about the different Kangas and fabricks, how they use them and what they mean.



















We had a visit at the Ethiopian restaurant "Addis in dar" after last years suksess. A really fun way to share a meal.


























Silje was very sporty and excepted an invitation to do some traditional dancing. 


























On saturday we said goodbye to our two bosses Anne and Pia. They had to rush back to Oslo and start the big project CODA ung.





















On sunday we had our only chance to really chill, so we went for the beach! 
How many dancers can you get into a very small bajaji? 4!





















Ahhhhhhh!:)





















We found this great beach last year, so we just had to go back to Kipepeo.






















What a great way to end our Weekend adventures! 
Stay tuned for more about our crazy last week of finishing choreography and performing on stage.
