One of my most amazing travel/intercultural experiences

I used to be a slow traveler in my 20s, spending one to six months in different countries. One of the most memorable experiences that has shaped me today is that I spent nearly two years living in Moshi, a small town in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. I learned many lessons about nature and wildlife, indigenous wisdom, intercultural intelligence, and geopolitical matters.
