Today I woke up smelling a new world. I opened my window only to find a busy smelling city in Africa. There was a slight pose before I got out of bed, I was still sleepy, but that didn't stop me from seeing Nyiel. I took a taxi to the closest place he could to the main market. I had no exact location on her but all I new is that she owned a fish store in Bor. As the man gestured for me to get out of the taxi, I did so and went on to the new world. I walked down the street full of kids playing and business men walking, and then there was me. As i looked closer at this stand I saw a woman with children and she looked like Nyiel. I got closer, closer, closer. It was sadly a woman with children with the name becka. Right behind her was Nyiel. She was small and skinny yet a little buff. She left her stand to come greet me. She was holding a small doll. She said from me to have it and added that it would protect me from evil spirits. We went to her stand to pick up some fish. She had tons of different types of fish. There was evan a rare fish that you only can get from Cuba. Her fish was next to a tall building but at the same time had bad architecture but good details. Her fish reminded me of the fish tacos I Santa Barbara yet fresher. I was finishing up the fish when her neighbor came to greet us. She was an older lady with a younger husband. Her name was Franzana she was a really nice woman. We finished lunch with her and then Nyiel left her oldest son in charge so that me and her could explore the good parts of Bor. We went to the closest store so she could show me the type of clothes that normal people in Bor wear. There clothes weren't as different as I thought. Most of the buildings were mostly for business and if it wasn't it was a run down hotel that would fall in an earthquake, but this one was different. It was tall and worn out. I got my first shirt from that store. It was getting late, like dinner time late. We went ate fast food (walking while eating quickly). She said I could stay in her place at night cause they had an extra bed. I said i'd meet them at the mini mart around the corner cause I had to get my luggage from the other hotel that I was in. As I met them and we went to there house she and her kids told me about how her and her husband met. It was a far taxi drive. There house had one neighbor and was made out of wood. We stopped by and got the mail. She was hoping for another loan from someone in the world, but it was just a notice about her kid getting in trouble for school. I walked in and it was smaller than I had origanally expected. I went in and had a snack of bread and went to bed.
