In 2013 and 2014, I was a Fulbright Scholar at the University of Botswana. I wrote over 100 blog posts detailing my experiences with power outages, water rationing, dozens of encounters with wild animals (snakes at work and moneys in my home) and Pula (one word used to represent three things in Botswana: the national currency, rain and “Blessings,” the most common Setswana greeting). I hope you enjoy a sampling of my most popular blog posts.
