So although World Cup has been over for about a month, Mozambique is yet again just a little behind, and the Shakira anthem is just now really catching hold.
While roaming the used clothing market in Chimoio, in central Mozambique, fellow PCV Claire and I started a Shakira echo.
"saminamina" we sang.
"eh eh" the little boys selling used clothes sang back at us.
"waka waka" we continued.
"Eeeeeh eh" they rocked on.
And I am pretty sure we made it all the way through the chorus a few times as we wandered from booth to booth.
What does Waka Waka mean? Well I think it's Zulu, but honestly who cares. All I know is that in English, it means dance party.
This time for Africa.
