I have not been to Zimbabwe for many years and my children were nervous for me to go. We had heard so many bad things. They thought I would be caught by the police and disappear. The politics are complicated in Zimbabwe. I was very cautious.
When I got to Harare I had expected to have problems and difficulties everywhere. But things was so much easier than I had expected! The next couple of days was among the most enjoyable I have ever had. I learned so much.
