As he was teaching me different phrases, I asked him for a few simple ones, things that I would need to know in Africa.
I asked what the word for water was...Maya...we all know that I am going to need that one in Africa! Then I asked him the word for bathroom...another word or phrase that I am going to need in Africa....and Christopher who knows a ton of Arabic had no idea how to ask for the bathroom or toilet or anything.

So although I may know how to say 'Baby' and 'Water'...I have no idea how to ask for a bathroom or even a squatty potty! I guess I will learn over time, but for now I am grateful for a man that is patient enough to teach me a few words and even have to go over the same word or phrase numerous times in order for me to pronounce it correctly!
