Ga Go Na Mathata in Botswana!

Ga Go Na Mathata in Botswana!
By on October 22, 2010

That means “no worries” in Setswana, the local language in Botswana. Having lived and gone to school here for two months so far, I’ve started to adopt that philosophy. Don’t get me wrong; there are plenty of times when I start to worry.-like when I wake up and learn that all the dorms have run out of water. Or when my teachers routinely show up to class fifteen minutes late. I’ve learned how to not let things get me down, and luckily, there are so many amazing things in Botswana, as well!
