[Photo Report]By Takuya from Univ. of Zambia_1

Here is a photo report from Takuya Fukuoka who is studying at University of Zambia from July 2024.

 Zambia

This is a picture of my visit to Victoria Falls, the most famous tourist attraction in Zambia. It took about 8 hours from Lusaka to Livingstone by car. It was a wonderful experience to feel the magnificent nature. Since it was the dry season and the amount of water was low, I would like to visit during the rainy season as well.

This is a picture taken when I played with children in a village in Zambia. We played soccer together and played with a seesaw made of tree branches. They were so innocent and friendly to me and called me “family”. I was happy when they called me “Takuwa” because I thought they remembered my name. However, I later learned that it means “come here” in Lozi, the local language in Zambia. This experience made me feel embarrassed, but it is a happy memory for me.

This is a picture taken with students from the University of Zambia. They were all very kind, and we quickly became friends. After this, we went to the field and played soccer.
