Moshi, Tanzania — Walking Under Kilimanjaro’s Clouds

Today unfolded at a gentle, unhurried pace. After breakfast, I lingered over another coffee, letting the morning breathe before heading out for lunch. Street food came to the rescue — fast, simple, and perfect for the day.

I wandered into the supermarket, grabbed a tea from the bakery, and filled my basket with a few essentials. Then it was back to the hostel to drop everything off before setting out again.

The next mission was the gas station — or so I thought. After a long walk, I discovered there was no booking office there. Instead, it was at another station, right between the bus station and the supermarket… a place I had just passed. So I turned around and walked it all again.

On the way, I passed Kibo Palace. It was getting late, and I decided to head up to the rooftop to check on Kilimanjaro. The mountain was hidden behind clouds once more, but I still took a few photos — proof of the moment, even without the view.

At the right gas station, I finally found what I was looking for: bus times, routes, and prices. With all the information in hand, the day felt complete.

I ended the evening back at the hostel with a Coke, a cup of tea, and a slice of chocolate cake from earlier — tired legs, calm mind, and that quiet satisfaction that only comes from walking through a place instead of rushing past it.
