Visiting friends in Lusaka - Zambia


Wednesday – Saturday 20-23.03

We spent 3 nights in the  beautiful house of Karina and Eberhard in Lusaka, the capital city of Zambia. He was the supervisor of Judith in Bolivia in 2005 when she wrote her Magister Arbeit for the GTZ (Gesellschaft für technische Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung). Now he is coordinating all water related development work for the GIZ for the southern African countries.  


On Thursday he invited us to participate at the world water football tournament organized by him and his team. Junior football teams from all over Zambia took part and ambassadors and ministers spoke official words. A Zambian popstar was singing and a marching band playing. In short a great experience! I even played football myself in the German team but we lost both our games.






At night we were invited for dinner by Karina and Eberhard  to a fantastic Italian restaurant  at the Polo Club of Lusaka. From the people we met that day and from what we have been shown of Lusaka we can understand why they feel very comfortable in Lusaka. Thank you very much again Karina and Eberhard!
