Greetin All,
I am from the USA and am a graduate student who studies Swahili. I have been to Tanzania three times and lived in Arusha before, and many have recommend Iringa this time for me. It is a good size for me. I'm looking to live someone more quaint where I can focus on Swahili and will eventually do some research towards my degree. Iringa seems like an ideal size town for me with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables.
I will visit Iringa for a few days very soon before deciding to move there long term. I will be looking for a budget guesthouse in town centre to stay for a few days. I will eventually want to find a one room or self contained apartment where I can cook and also have internet.
It would be great if you have any specific recommendations that you can point me to for a guesthouse and any other tips in Iringa. I would also be open to anyone that you would like to connect if you are around in the next week.
Thank you
