How do you pay your rent? Here is our rent for the next year - it took us quite a few trips to the bank to get enough cash out of the ATM to be able to pay! It made such an impressive stack I just had to take a picture to share with y'all. :-)
First of all, paying in cash for rent is kind of an odd idea, as is paying for an entire year at a time. But hey, this is Tanzania, and neither idea is that unusual. One problem is that the highest denomination of money in Tanzania is 10,000 shillings, pictured here, and it's only worth about $7.25 or in US dollars. So, thus the big stack of cash!
I guess we're committed to staying in this house through June 30, 2011. The exterminator is coming again on Saturday to work on getting rid of the termites... again. Maybe the 10th time is the charm?
