Zimbabwe Village

As part of our OAT trip, we visited a local village. We crowded into the kitchen with the local family and some curious neighbors. We introduced ourselves and got to ask them questions about their lives. They in turn had questions for us. Mostly they were curious about dating, marriage, crime, pregnancy outside of marriage and diet. They were surprised to learn that men don't have to pay a dowry, but we assured them that diamond rings were quite expensive.
