Par vietu
Landlocked between two major rivers, Zimbabwe pairs high-plateau cities with extensive savanna reserves.
Urban life centres on Harare and Bulawayo across the high plateau between the Zambezi and Limpopo basins. Masvingo anchors the southern interior near the stone ruins of Great Zimbabwe, where ancestral dry-stone architecture established regional trade routes. Modern transport routes, including the transcontinental highway from Cairo to Cape Town, intersect across these central highlands to connect mining and agricultural zones.

Local arts feature soapstone and verdite carving traditions alongside recognized literature and independent theater in municipal centers. Daily food revolves around sadza, a thick cornmeal staple paired with meat stews or peanut sauces, while communal braai gatherings anchor social life around open wood grills. Tanganda tea and Mazoe citrus cordial remain household staples across both rural communities and city suburbs.
Long-term residency requires self-reliant utilities, as city houses routinely integrate rooftop solar setups and private boreholes to bypass municipal electricity and water interruptions. Intercity road journeys involve frequent police checkpoints that inspect mandatory vehicle safety gear like hazard triangles. Service stations operate on physical currency rather than bank cards, necessitating advance cash planning for travel.

Cilvēki, kuri šeit ir bijuši
Šodien biju 4 vietās saistībā ar savu iespējamo otro darbu. Tas ir jautājums – it kā vajag (lai atpelnītu braucienu), bet tajā pašā laikā kaut kā „nevelk”. Saprotu, varbūt tās ir atrunas, varbūt patiešām slinkums, bet tik ļoti negribas strādāt 80 stundas nedēļā. Varbūt lomu spēlē arī tas, ka vecāki neuzstāj, naudas pietiek, un es mazliet slimoju, lai gan ar vienu darbu braucienu noteikti neatpelnīšu. Vārdu sakot, ja kaut kur izdosies, tad redzēsim. Šodien bija visnoslogotākā diena, kādu jebkad esmu redzējis – 201 klients! Visticamāk, tas ir saistīts ar reklāmdevēju kongresa noslēgumu, tāpēc visi nāca pie mums. Toties sākās Microsoft kongress, pie mums pat nāca krievi. Protams, es viņus apkalpoju labāk nekā citus, galu galā mūsējie! Viņi atstāja savas vizītkartes, sakot – 'piezvani, ja izdomāsi'. Tagad esmu pilns gaidu, kas būs, ja izdosies?))) Dienas beigās 3 momenti sabojāja garastāvokli. Kad veic clock out (izej no darba), ja dzeramnauda nonāk kasē, tad tā tiek sadalīta starp palikušajiem. Tāpēc bieži vien visus steidzina „iziet”. Šodien menedžeris bija Deivids (kuru es vismazāk mīlu), viņš piespieda „iziet”, kad vēl bija palicis liels galds (=> liela dzeramnauda), turklāt viesmīļu vadītājs teica, ka tas galds ir „viņam”. Tad es uzliku šķīvi uz galdauta, Deivids uzreiz teica, ka tas ir tīrs, un es to sasmērēšu, bet pats vēlāk gāja ēst uz galdauta. Vārdu sakot, šodien nebiju ar to īpaši apmierināts. Vispār, zemapziņā salīdzinot Atlantu un Siktivkaru, Atlantu un Maskavu, nonāc pie vairākiem secinājumiem. Pirmajā gadījumā Atlanta neapšaubāmi uzvar, saprotu tos cilvēkus, kuri bija tikai Siktivkarā un atbrauca šurp, šeit viņiem šķiet kā paradīze. Daudzi man jautā – kāpēc tu nekur neej? Tāpēc, ka Maskavā es varu aiziet jebkur, un tas man būs daudz patīkamāk un interesantāk nekā šeit. Salīdzinot ar Maskavu, Atlanta ir liels ciemats, mierīgs, kluss, bet ciemats. Nav „uguns”, „pulsējošas dzīslas”. Padzīvojiet Maskavā, sajūtiet tās garu, un šī Atlanta jums būs kā amerikānim Zimbabve. Cilvēkiem šeit ir gandrīz viss, pastrādāja 2 mēnešus un nopirka jaunu mašīnu, nevienam neko nevajag pierādīt, dzīvo kā visi. Man labāk Maskavā – nekā nav, viegli neko neizdarīsi, grozies, rosies. Cilvēki šeit ir pārāk „pārēdušies” labas dzīves, viņiem praktiski neko nevajag, uz neko netiecas. Bet pamēģiniet pie mums izdzīvot ar pensiju, pamēģiniet ar stipendiju nodzīvot ilgāk par nedēļu? Šeit jūs vienkārši nesapratīs. Un paliek šeit, kā sapratu, vai nu tie, kuriem Krievijā maz kas spīd (maigi izsakoties, tie, kas neapgrūtina sevi ar mācībām, darbu utt.), vai tie, kuri mērķtiecīgi grib aizbraukt no Krievijas (precību, pilnīgas pielūgsmes Amerikai, kādas neapmierinātības, nespējas realizēties dēļ). Varbūt es kļūdos un pat maldos, bet tas ir mans viedoklis, es to izteicu. Viss var notikt, varbūt dzīve parādīs manu secinājumu par pilsētām nepamatotību, varbūt tieši pretēji, pierādīs, ka man bija pilnīga taisnība. Redzēsim, pēc 10 gadiem izlasīsim šīs piezīmes, varbūt es būšu Nostradams?
