Shagalabagala

Hands down my favourite Swahili phrase learnt to date is shagalabagala, meaning ‘vice versa’, ‘chaos’ or ‘upside down’. Bloomin’ marvellous.

Dar es Salaam has some stunning stretches of beach and some upmarket resorts, many of which are regularly used as venues for work events. This particular resort was too ordered to be shagalabagala.
