Things I won’t miss

·         Out stretched hands – “Donné moi . .”
·         Long drops after dark once the roaches come out
·         Hand nose blowing
·         Being slimy and sweaty right after a cold shower
·         Seeing live chickens hanging by their feet
·         Smarmy policemen at check points – “What did you bring me today?”
·         Being woken pre-dawn by the incessant sweeping
·         Public urination
·         Crap internet connections
·         Skinny dogs with bloated teats
·         Longing for just a quick catch up with family and friends
·         Pigs/goats/calves trussed up on the back of a motor bike weaving through the city traffic
·         Seeing pre-adolescent girls carrying loads on their heads that would make a grown man break out in a sweat
·         The smell of sewage, burning plastic, sour manioc
