Teff times

Day of travel that started by eating injera and spicy sauce in Addis Ababa at some ungodly hour and finally realising that Ethiopian cuisine is not the same as Middle Eastern...

Injera will take time to grow on me.

Chilly dash from Heathrow to home to don more layers. Cambridge station on a winter's morning was noticeable in its quietness and order after the colour and noise of Africa. Clothes taken on Africa trips, even if unworn, always emerge from the bag smelling of open fires or tinged with red dust. An afternoon of washing, unpacking and trying to remain organised as there is only a week-long turnaround until my next trip.

An odd feeling to be pacing the cold streets of Cambridge again. This latest trip has had more of an impact than most.
